Well, last time I checked they said it would take 3-5 years waiting time to get an appointment, recently I learned they don't even have an open waiting list right now.
Yikes. I don't think I have ever been so glad to already have an autism diagnosis.
What is the wait time like for ADHD?
Same, they are currently still working through the 2019 backlog.
There is the option of going through "Right To Choose" system, which is ostensibly quicker but i think you have to pay for things yourself.
GP or doctor can give you proper advice about that though.
