A free, private 10-question online ADHD self-test for adults who want to reflect on focus, organization, procrastination, and follow-through. It takes about 5 minutes, runs entirely in your browser, and does not store or share your answers. This educational screener cannot diagnose ADHD or replace a professional evaluation; it can help you decide whether a conversation with a clinician would be useful.
You will rate how often each of the following has applied to you over the last 2 weeks:
Each answer is scored 0 (Not at all / Never) to 4 (Constantly / Very Often). Your total score maps to one of four reflection tiers:
Your answers stay in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server, stored, or shared, and no protected health information (PHI) is captured. Using this tool does not create a provider-patient relationship.
A self-screener can help you organize what you are noticing, but it does not replace a clinical evaluation. If your results suggest reaching out, the next step is a psychiatric visit where a clinician reviews your history, current symptoms, medical background, and other factors that could be contributing — then discusses options with you.
Yes. The self-test is completely free, takes about 5 minutes, and runs entirely in your browser — no account or email required, and nothing is stored or shared. It is offered as an educational tool by SLS Psychiatry, a board-certified psychiatry practice in Southlake, Texas.
No. This is an educational screening tool, not a diagnosis or a substitute for a professional evaluation. It can help organize your symptoms before a visit, but only a licensed clinician can diagnose ADHD after a full evaluation that reviews your history, current symptoms, medical background, and other possible causes such as anxiety, depression, sleep problems, or substance use.
No. These questions cover common adult ADHD-related patterns, but this self-test is not the validated ASRS-v1.1 instrument and does not produce a clinical score. An online screening tool cannot establish or rule out ADHD; a professional evaluation considers your history and other possible explanations for similar symptoms.
Yes. ADHD frequently persists into adulthood, and many adults are diagnosed for the first time in their 20s, 30s, 40s, or later. Adult ADHD often looks more like chronic disorganization, procrastination, time blindness, emotional reactivity, and trouble completing tasks than the stereotype of a hyperactive child.
Yes. The questions apply to all adults, and they cover the inattentive patterns — disorganization, forgetfulness, procrastination, trouble finishing tasks — that are especially common in women with ADHD. Because women are more likely to have the inattentive presentation and to have been missed in childhood, many are diagnosed for the first time as adults. If your results raise questions, an evaluation with a clinician experienced in adult ADHD is the right next step.
A screening (like this test) is a short set of questions that flags whether ADHD is worth investigating — it cannot rule ADHD in or out. An assessment (or evaluation) is a full clinical visit where a psychiatric clinician reviews your history, symptoms across settings, medical background, and other possible explanations before making a diagnosis and discussing treatment options.
You immediately see which patterns your answers reflect, along with plain-language guidance on what they may mean. Nothing is stored or sent anywhere unless you choose to share your result with our office. If your results suggest ADHD is worth a closer look, you can request a comprehensive adult ADHD evaluation — available in person in Southlake, Texas, or by telehealth anywhere in Texas.
If possible: a brief written summary of when symptoms started and how they affect work, relationships, and daily life; any prior ADHD or mental health records; a current medication list; and any school report cards or evaluations that mention attention concerns. Your screener results can be a useful starting point for the conversation.
