I hope it isn't this way everywhere, but in my county, ADHD is not a sufficient diagnosis to qualify for low cost services. You have to have another diagnosis, such as depression, PTSD, schizophrenia, bipolar, and others. I remember anxiety also did not qualify. I hope these limitations are just my county and not widespread. (My county and state are really strapped for cash right now so they are increasing limitations.)
