Paperwork for a Living, Piles at Home
Carson City runs on paperwork. As the state capital, this town is full of people who review forms, process applications, and manage documents for a living. You are good at your job. You have to be.
But when you get home, it is a different story. Your personal mail sits in a pile. Your taxes are always last-minute. You keep meaning to schedule that doctor's appointment but somehow it never happens.
At work, there is structure. Deadlines. A boss who checks in. Your brain has enough external pressure to keep going. At home, you are on your own -- and that is when things fall apart.
This is one of the most common patterns in adults with undiagnosed ADHD. You can perform at work because the job forces you to. But your personal life feels like a constant mess that you can never catch up on.
Small-Town Life Makes It Harder to Ask for Help
Carson City is a small town. About 58,000 people. Everyone knows everyone. The person at the pharmacy might be your neighbor. The receptionist at the clinic might be your kid's teacher's spouse.
That makes it hard to walk into a local office and say, "I think something is wrong with how my brain works."
And that is one more reason ADHD stays hidden here. People push through. They cope. They make lists and set alarms and still forget half of what they planned.
You do not have to walk into anyone's office. You do not have to tell anyone in town. A video visit with a licensed provider can give you the answers you need -- from your own living room.
Do These Sound Like You?
You are sharp at work but scattered at home. You start cleaning the kitchen and end up reorganizing the garage. You sit down to pay bills and somehow end up scrolling your phone for an hour. You have a hard time reading for more than a few minutes unless it really grabs you.
These are not character flaws. These are signs of a brain that works differently. And finding out is simple. Take our free 2-minute ADHD screening to see where you stand.
Not Sure If It's ADHD?
Our free screening takes about 2 minutes. It's based on the same tool doctors use. No commitment, no cost.

Frequently Asked Questions
I work for the state. Will my employer know I am being evaluated for ADHD?
No. Your medical information is private. Your employer will not be notified. Everything is confidential between you and your provider.
I am organized at work but a mess at home. Could that still be ADHD?
Yes. This is very common with adult ADHD. Work gives you structure, deadlines, and accountability. At home, there is no external pressure to keep you on track. That gap is a classic ADHD pattern.
Are there ADHD specialists in Carson City?
Finding a specialist in a small city can be tough. That is why we offer video appointments with licensed providers who focus on ADHD. You get expert care without leaving Carson City.
Can ADHD show up later in life even if I did fine in school?
Yes. Many adults with ADHD got through school by working extra hard or relying on intelligence to compensate. Symptoms often become more obvious when life gets more complicated -- jobs, kids, bills, relationships.
What does an ADHD appointment cost without insurance?
We accept several insurance plans in Nevada. If you do not have insurance or prefer to pay out of pocket, we can walk you through your options when you call. No hidden fees.
