I’ve spent probably 40 of my 43 years on earth thinking that I was broken. That everything was just harder for me than for everyone else. That I would always struggle with certain things that came naturally to other people. That I would forever be frustrated to the point of screaming because I just couldn’t do things other people didn’t even have to put thought into doing.
I’ve seen doctors. I’ve been on antidepressants and anti anxiety meds. I’ve read every book ever written on both those subjects. I’ve tried CBT, DBT and ACT and have plenty of books on those, too. Thing is, I never did manage to stick to any of what I learned for very long before flitting off looking for the next thing. I never ask for help because I find human verbal interaction intensely uncomfortable.
Do you know why? I have ADHD/ASD. I had my appointment and after an hour of talking to the doctor I cried with relief for another 3 hours because suddenly everything made absolute perfect sense. Suddenly I could name the thing and as we know from Rumpelstiltskin, when you name a thing it loses some of its power.
The fact that I have both explains why, even when I did suspect maybe I had one or the other, I immediately assumed it couldn’t be because I am not 100% of either. I obsessing crave the next dopamine fox but I am not untidy. I can’t deal with verbal interaction and I can hear the noise of electricity but I such at math.
Thank you NHS Right to Choose because I could not live with my mind for 12-24 months waiting for a local PCT assessment and thank you from the genuine deepest bottom of my heart Psychiatry UK for actually, to just OMG insta hashtag, changing my life.

Really positive experience for me.
The online chat platform was a little “quirky”, booting us out once briefly, but otherwise did the job beautifully.
My assessment was thorough and clearly very focused on my overall well-being. I am so happy with the service I received and would recommend it to anyone.

Psychiatry-uk as a platform provides a great service and I have had a positive experience over all . The staff make sure to keep their service users up to date regularly and respond quickly to queries. The patient portal is extremely helpful as it allows you to contact either admin staff or your chosen consultant with ease and it also keeps all of your important records within easy access.
I wouldn't say that the conference call platform that Psychiatry-uk uses is perfect. I followed the recommended settings regarding the browser and passed the pre-appointment webcam and audio tests, but the platform malfunctioned anyway by sending me and my doctor to different rooms! Thankfully this was sorted, but not by using any remedy available from psychiatry-uk. I recognise that others have not experienced this problem and it may just be an anomaly, and other than this I have had a stellar service.

Dr Neel Tambimuttu handled my consultation with tact and empathy. We discussed many issues pertaining to my life, including a lack of achievement in my current field of work. He took his time to focus on the positive aspects of what I have achieved and how bio-psycho-social treatment will help me achieve my life goals through the rest of my life. He is a re-assuring presence and I would have no hesitancy to recommend him to others who are looking for psychiatric support.

Well this surgery and my psychiatrist was amazing. For the first time it felt like someone was listening to what I was saying. He actually had real concern for my welfare and even chased my GP to do follow ups of things I had reported and they ignored. It was nice for someone to actually care and offer support.
Psychiatry-UK was awarded the iWantGreatCare certificate of excellence in 2024 for delivering outstanding care.
