Why should the ADHD bill C-329 matter to ADHD people? 

It’s a nightmare to find someone who can give you a competent diagnosis for ADHD in ADHD hostile BC, let alone other provinces

Why should the ADHD bill C-329 matter to ADHD people? 

It’s a nightmare to find someone who can give you a competent diagnosis for ADHD in ADHD hostile BC, let alone other provinces

Most doctors have either no training or an inadequate training on ADHD and can’t give you a competent diagnosis in BC. There should be mandatory CME courses on them for ALL doctors, but the governments and the College of Physicians & Surgeons refuse to do so.

For the very small number of people who can diagnose ADHD, they often have long waitlists and closed waitlists.

ADHD hostile & negligent provincial governments are violating the Canada Medicare Act, on public administration, comprehensiveness, universality and accessibility. Hope some ADHD person sues them.

They’ve de facto privatized ADHD diagnosis & treatment by neglect to private Nurse Practitioner clinics for up to $600 and $80 to adjust meds. Many of us can’t afford this.

As an adult ADHD coach who started and ran the Vancouver Adult ADD Support Group for 17 years & has been on the board for CHADD Vancouver for 17 years, (RIP), I’ve heard enough ADHD horror stories on ADHD assessment & medication that if I wrote them all down, I’d have a book.

I’ve been sending out a list of people who can diagnose and treat ADHD in Metro Vancouver for 20 years,  thousands of times. Why? No need to do this for depression or anxiety disorders.

The majority of adults with ADHD are undiagnosed or misdiagnosed with depression or anxiety disorders

BCNDP, through its human rights discrimination and neglect of ADHD, are violating the Canada Medicare Act and its own BC Medicare Protection Act on ADHD in 4 of the 5 areas. They have de facto privatized diagnosis to private nurse practitioners. Costing $600 for a diagnosis,  $80 to adjust medications. Many can’t afford this. ROI of governments neglect of us?
