I would phone the Woodbourne Priory hospital(private) and ask if anyone specialises in this condition and if they do do they also do NHS work (If they don't it might be worth a one of consultation privately for the assessment process- then they might be able to recommend someone NHS)

I still think there is a huge stigma attached to serious mental illness such as schizophrenia and personality disorders. Whereas things like depression and OCD i think have become more accepted. I have a mental illness and only a few people know. I think this goes for most people. People that see it as trendy are usually people who think they have or for some reason seem to want a mental illness, without realising the full implications of it. 1 in 4 people suffer from some sort of mental illness at some point in their life, so i think it's still the majority of people don't have a mental illness.

Hiya
Look on the net for any local organisations who deal with Asbergers and or ADHA, some of these group are run by parents who deal with children that suffer with similar disorders. Those parents are almost experts on the subject. They will be able to recommend someone for your friends partner. The doc concerned may not specialise in the adult version of the disorder but they will know about the disorder itself and be able to reffer your friends partner. It's just as important that your friend gets support too from other people like here... living with others that have ADHD

I know the best doctor. I've not only heard but personally received several cures from him. Such as depression, arthritis, cancer, tendinitis, removal of a sliver embedded in my eye (without surgery), etc. He does it all and it cost nothing with no side effects. HE"S interested in curing any and all diseases. His number's in the Bible and you can contact HIM on your knees. HIS title is GOD and HIS sons name IS JESUS. Oh! yea HIS work is guaranteed or your soul back.
