Welcome to the Scottish ADHD Support Group. We are just a new group and we will be meeting on a regular basis to try and help each other with the symptoms and difficulties that Adults with ADHD experience on a daily basis. Our
meetings are friendly and loosely structured. We exchange
information, talk about issues related to adult ADHD, and have a good
time. All meetings are confidential, no judgements are made, and no
issues are too delicate. For more details you can either email us at scottishadhd@googlemail.com or telephone 07897190845. We welcome all adults with or without a diagnosis, spouses, partners and friends. Our next meeting will take place at the Costas Coffee Shop, 205 Sauchiehall Street G2 3EX. The meeting will take place on Saturday 28th November 2009 at 2pm. It has a nice area downstairs with sofas and it is usually quiet enough on a Saturday afternoon that will allow us to have a quiet chat amongst ourselves. For these meeting to be a success we really need everyone to come along and participate. If you require any additional support between meetings then you can have a look around the national ADHD website, http://www.aadd.org.uk/, there is a fantastic forum where you will find very helpful and understanding people to share your thoughts. There is a variety of links to NHS Scotland and information regarding their guidelines which you may also find useful. SIGN Guideline 52 unfortunately does not extend to adults as yet but there is something "in the pipeline" sometime in the near future. It does however provide some sort of framework for treatment which we may be able to use to our advantage. We look forward to meeting you! |
