I feel pretty determined right now so I have written a letter for my gp and the eastvale centre with reasons as to how their assessment ignored the information I gave to my gp. I've also included an adhd self referral checklist as provided by the GP who replied to this thread.

They ask for "objective evidence", I'm very concerned that I'll be rejected because "I can't be objective about my own mental health" or that they require evidence from schoolwork which is not possible for me.

Their 3rd and final reason for rejection is the only one bothering me "no active illicit drug misuse for at least 3 months (especially stimulant use) as this would make any diagnosis invalid...". I told my doctor that I smoked weed a few months ago but can't remember exactly what I said to him. I really don't want to lie but if I have to tell a fib to get medical care then I might.

I'm considering contacting my solicitor about this too but I'll go through these initial steps first.
