Getting a Diagnosis in the UK - eviltoast

Hello, I’ve decided to finally get the answer, and go get tested, someone posted a comic of @cypopps a few days ago here and I read all their creations because it connected a lot with me. But I am a bit lost in how to find where to do a Diagnostic in the UK, I see the word “Assesment” and “Diagnostics” which seems to be two different things? The Places in my region do “Assesments” some mostly for kids, other for Young Adults which Is what I found I fould The Assessment Team near me, but it seems crazy to me. Does it actually cost 2500 Pound to get tested? It costs 40 Euro in France

I thought it would be faster in the UK to get tested from what I saw in the UK compared to France but I am confused on the Wording and the Price

    But more context for you, I went nhs for a diagnosis (adhd) and switched to Right to Choose after waiting a year. Estimate is half year till diagnosis now, not that I trust that though. Mental health services suck in the UK for a reason, a nefarious one, to slowly privatize the whole of UK healthcare. Look at dentistry as example, impossible to get a nhs dentist.
