Hulloe. Newbie here. Decided to join, after reading the gainfull insights/ advice as posted by other members.

Still navigating the site, but my main concern being my Adp is up for review. Transferred over from PiP. Basically; i was diagnosed with adult AdHd 5 years ago. I decided not to inform Dwp back then, as it didn't have an impact on my PiP conditions back then.

Review time now with Adp/ Social Security Scotland. Again; AdHd not having too much of a bearing on my eveyday functioning. Quandry: Tick the 'no change' box, or upload, via weblink, AdHd diagnosis and meds from psychiatry. Will this flag up with Adp/ SSS why I never notified Dwp back in the day? (Failure to report a change etcetera..). Apologies; I'm aware that this (sorta) issue has been dealt with in previous posts- however; the last one I came across being June 2024- I was wondering re the outcome of the : Do I/ Don't I report change.

Cheers

    Hey there @giesabreak and a warm welcome to the community from a fellow neurodivergent. 😊

    In my personal opinion, you can put that the adhd is now officially diagnosed, but as it doesn't affect you day to day, then say just that, just to be safe. They're more interested in people getting "better" but not telling the ADP staff. There's always a chance it could trigger a new assessment, but you may be asked to have an assessment anyway.

    Hi Albus.

    Indeed; I think I ought to mention it also. Day's end, they may (as you suggest), call me in for a further assessment regardless.

    Deep Joys....
