What is ADHD?
ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) is a mental health condition that affects how a person thinks, feels, and behaves. It impacts both cognitive and behavioral functions, often showing up in different ways.
From a behavioral standpoint, ADHD can lead to restlessness, impulsivity, irritability, or difficulty sitting still. On the cognitive side, it may cause forgetfulness, distraction, or trouble sustaining focus. Many adults with ADHD describe it as feeling mentally “scattered” or unable to follow through, even when they want to.

Getting Tested or Diagnosed for ADHD Online
If you think you may have ADHD, the journey often begins with a self-assessment. These tools help you reflect on your behaviors and symptoms before meeting with a licensed professional.
At Graceland Psychiatry, our online Adult ADHD Self-Check can help you understand whether your symptoms may point toward ADHD. This assessment explores key areas such as attention, focus, impulsivity, and restlessness.
While a self-assessment can’t replace a clinical diagnosis, it’s a valuable first step toward clarity and professional care.
Meeting a Specialist for an ADHD Diagnosis
To confirm an ADHD diagnosis, it’s important to meet with a qualified mental health specialist—either in person or virtually.
During your appointment, your provider will review your symptoms, daily challenges, and medical history. They may also ask for input from close friends or family members who can provide additional insights into your behavior patterns.
This process helps ensure an accurate, well-rounded diagnosis that rules out other conditions with similar symptoms.
With Graceland Psychiatry, you can complete the entire evaluation process online, from your home, and receive guidance from experienced ADHD specialists.
Start today with our quick 1-minute ADHD assessment to discover the right path toward focus, strength, and clarity.
