Free Self-Rated Screening
Do I have ADHD?
An ASRS-style check across inattention and hyperactivity-impulsivity symptoms in daily adult life — organization, follow-through, restlessness and impulsivity. Answer each item honestly to get a score and general interpretation — this is for awareness only and doesn't replace a psychiatric assessment.
This public web version uses symptom domains from the WHO Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS-v1.1) rather than reproducing its exact item wording. Adult ADHD screening is most informative alongside a childhood symptom history.

Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is this adult adhd screening test?
This is a free, self-rated screening tool for awareness purposes only.

Adult ADHD screening is most informative alongside a childhood symptom history. It cannot replace a full psychiatric assessment.
Is this test a diagnosis?
No. A screening score only suggests whether further discussion with a psychiatrist is worthwhile. Diagnosis requires a full clinical interview considering your history, other conditions and functioning.
What should I do if my score suggests significant symptoms?
Contact Dr. Kushal Kharel for a full psychiatric consultation, in person in Kathmandu or online. If there is any immediate safety risk, seek emergency care right away.
Is this screening test free and confidential?
Yes. This screening tool is free to use, and your answers stay in your browser — nothing is sent to a server or stored.
