Could you have ADHD?
Free screener
for US adults.

Q: Is this a valid ADHD screening tool in the US?

Yes. The ASRS-v1.1 is the standard adult ADHD screener used by primary care physicians and psychiatrists across the US. It was developed by the World Health Organization in collaboration with Harvard Medical School.

Q: How do I get an official ADHD diagnosis in the US?

Start with your primary care physician or a psychiatrist. Bring your screener results and describe how symptoms affect your work, relationships, and daily life. Many telehealth platforms now offer ADHD evaluations with quick turnaround, often within one to two weeks.

Q: Does health insurance cover ADHD assessment in the US?

Most insurance plans cover ADHD evaluations under mental health benefits. Contact your insurer to confirm your coverage and any referral requirements. Telehealth evaluations are typically covered at the same rate as in-person visits.

Q: What is the ASRS-v1.1?

The Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale v1.1 is an 18-question screening tool developed by the World Health Organization and researchers at Harvard Medical School. It has a 99.5% specificity rate and is the most widely validated tool for screening adult ADHD.

Based on the WHO-validated ASRS-v1.1 used by clinicians nationwide. Takes 2 minutes. Get an instant breakdown of your scores and know your next step.

This is a screening tool only - not a diagnostic instrument. It cannot diagnose ADHD. Only a qualified mental health or medical professional can diagnose ADHD after a full clinical evaluation. Use these results as a conversation-starter with your doctor.

Over 10 million US adults live with ADHD - the majority undiagnosed or untreated.

Remember: A high score does not mean you have ADHD, and a low score does not rule it out. Many conditions share symptoms with ADHD. This tool is based on the ASRS-v1.1, a validated screener, but screening is not diagnosis.

What to do next

Share these results with your primary care doctor, psychiatrist, or psychologist - you can print or screenshot this page.
A proper ADHD diagnosis involves a clinical interview, behavioral history (often going back to childhood), and ruling out other conditions like anxiety, depression, or sleep disorders.
Ask your doctor for a referral to a psychiatrist or clinical psychologist who specialises in adult ADHD.
Keep a symptom diary for 2 weeks before your appointment - note specific moments when symptoms interfered with your life.
