So, I had a psychologist tell me that I have many ADHD markers and referred me to the central mental health agency for an official diagnosis.

Unfortunately, In Sweden, an official diagnosis means higher insurance (fine), higher mortgages (not fine) and the inability to hold certain licenses.

Of course those markers of ADHD are pretty severely affecting my life, which is why I was seeing the Psychologist in the first place...

Would anyone recommend seeking a diagnosis in those conditions? Has anyone done this in Sweden and then gotten a mortgage? Is there anything else I can do?
