That's unfortunate. It's not exactly easy in the US, either. When I wanted to get treatment, I asked my family doc, who referred me to a psychiatrist. The psych diagnosed me with anxiety and depression. We tried treating that; it failed. Turns out ADHD causes a lot of anxiety. The anxiety was a symptom, not the cause. I found another doc who specializes in ADHD who finally started treating it, and the change was immediate.
