I searched for a specialist in the area that worked with mainly ADHD, Eating Disorders and so on. In my country, it's easy to find one if you are willing to pay out of pocket, you can also try insurance but the quality of processionals depends on the city you are in.

After I found a few, I was brutally honest with them. I told them about how I truly felt, as for example, when overwhelmed with things around me my mind blanked and I lost complete focus on anything.

I settled with one that had a more balanced view, listened to me, gave me practical advice, and didn't rely on the on just meds or the strongest med.

When it comes to specialists, it pays to search. Although the first consult can be expensive. It's also good to do prior research on their name, my specialist had mostly very positive reviews on many sites, and the reviews didn't seem bots or friends and family.
