I’m really enjoying training #prison /probation staff in #Latvia to deliver the R&R2 #ADHD and #mentalhealth programs. They are an impressive group!

17% of people in general adult psychiatric services had diagnosable #ADHD. Most of them are probably undiagnosed and misdiagnosed instead. Reported ⁦@rcpsych⁩ conference. #psychiatry #mentalhealth #neurodiversity

Stimulant medications to treat ADHD have a stronger treatment effect than meds used to treat depression and psychosis! Even better when combined with psychological interventions. #psychiatry #mentalhealth #neurodiversity

When faced with #ADHD and co-existing conditions? What to treat first? The most severe condition. Treatment may later be combined - one exception, dont combine if person has a psychotic disorder. #psychiatry #mentalhealth #neurodiversity

Neurodiversity and sexuality- what do we know? @Finnattentive @ADHDFoundation @AT_Autism @SameiHuda @Tamsin_J_Ford @autismtalknd
Poorer psychosexual functioning for ppl with #ASD or #ADHD. Lack of satisfaction, sexual dysfunction, risky sexual behaviors and victimization. This appears to be more marked for females #letstalkaboutsex #Neurodiversity @ADHDFoundation dovepress.com/articles.php?a…

Replying to @BBCPanorama
@BBCPanorama is right. There’s some bad practice in diagnosis of #ADHD. @NICEComms state diagnosis can be made by psychiatrist or qualified clinician. So clinical psychologists can diagnose. Educational & occupational psychologists can not as they dont have any clinical training
