Don’t worry about the test. I’ve played videogames since the original Mario. My oldest memory is actually my mom waking me up to see the end because my dad beat it.
I appreciate the reassurance at least. I still think the results will be skewed from what they would be if I didn’t have that level of familiarity and practice, but I can at least hope it won’t be significant enough to matter. Or, better yet, that more weight will be placed on the human elements like actually talking with me. I guess mostly it’s just wanting to actually feel heard and understood instead of having my concerns and experiences dismissed yet again. We wouldn’t still be undiagnosed in our forties if people listened.
I’m sorry you were so discouraged by the first experience. I was hot mad after mine, then I got the bill with crap on it like overtime, I was furious. I took the tests then had 15 minute phone call a week later. That’s when I was told my work would be too hard for someone with ADHD.
I wish you luck in your search. Don’t bomb the computer part on purpose or it will be suspicious. It was quite difficult, surprise surprise, because we have ADHD.

This shit will come at you ridiculously fast.
