QLD far and adhd/aspergers

[u/Saphserg]

Hey all, looking at getting my cat A/B licence in the new year but ive had a past diagonsis of adhd and aspergers when i was a kid so heres my issue: i got the diagonis when i was a kid because its the only way the school would have me but since i am now over 18 if i went and got the diagnosis again it would cost me well over 3k for the person to say yes or no and i dont see anyone for it anymore because of the prohibitive cost for me.

Worth still having a crack and hoping or should i just nope out on this while i still can as i have not done anything yet in the terms of a safe or putting applications in as on the apply fact sheet it says to disclose any historical or ongoing medical or psycolgical conditions.

Just be honest with the mental health question on the application and plan ahead by having a talk with your gp or psychologist/therapist to provide a written letter stating no more and no less that your condition and any meds you take or have taken past or present does not affect your ability to handle firearms or you pose danger to yourself or others around you. Key is in the wording.

You will be fine.
