It’s in the nervous to share this video that’s due out at some point but posted on that Patreon thing.

What made her go for it if she was determined that it came from Do4
Could it be she needs more money to claim to pay for her disney trips??
I think it’s a diagnosis for her. Which involve her vlogging the whole thing, Constantly calling the doctor reception to get cancellation for her, then when she gets diagnosed. Que crying, like a weight has been lifted off her shoulders and understands why she feels the way she does.
I have also seen on vlogs she has said openly the children have autism as struggle with queing. I think this is why she is open with them as she says she is too.

I cannot stand to watch her video she's such a hypocrit saying this is so hard to share and she's nervous think how all 4 of her children will feel when they grow up and see she was practically giddy to share their medical details....
I'm relieved that she has finally accepted that she may be neurodiverse and that she is starting to look into it. I honestly never thought she would do this so credit where credit is due! Some acceptance that Perfect Rhi may not be so perfect at all is a great place to start.
I would say though that she really really needs an urgent autism assessment where she isn't using her knowledge to game the system. She says herself that the benefits of having these assessments is to gain a better understanding of herself and to implement strategies that will help. I believe her autism more than the adhd is the driver behind most of her odd behaviour that is hugely detrimental to the children. She desperately needs support in managing this, especially in the context of having autistic children and a husband that is too afraid and checked out to challenge her.
I can only hope that this is the start of her neurodiversity journey and that her autism will be picked up by professionals. It is really obvious so I would be pretty shocked if it isn't.

I’m six months waiting for an appointment with the neurologist (I have a private one but he wasts me in the public system so that I don’t always have to pay €150 a visit. My specific condition is so rare that my current neurologist has no other patients with it and I still can’t get fast tracked an appointment
No surprised she’s managed to jump yer another nhs waiting list. ASD assessments, gynaecology now this. Beyond entitled
once again Rhi is complaining in order to jump the queue! i think i’ve mentioned before that i’m a medical student- i’ve seen patients in GP who are absolutely crippled by what is clearly undiagnosed ADHD and yet they’ve got a massive wait to get diagnosed and treated, and yet here Rhi is saying she just wants to know for no other reason than to say she has it!! it’s absolutely infuriating. i completely understand wanting to know what’s going on in your mind- i have ADHD myself- but jumping the queue when there are people who literally cannot function without getting a diagnosis and the right medication is just so incredibly selfish. shame on you Rhi
She hasn't finally accepted it there has been an influx of influencer all claiming adult adhd she's just trying to stay relevant!
100% this!!
Even the way she was talking about the questionnaire it was clear that she answered it in a way to ensure she would get an assessment. Also annoyed me that she’s not prepared to go private - clearly not short of money but too entitled!
I skipped through most of it but I found it really frustrating when she was talking about the podcast woman’s symptoms and she said ‘I did that before I put a strategy in place’. If she doesn’t need help implementing strategies to cope, why is she having an assessment?
I’m not really that bothered about the private/nhs argument. It’s the same clinicians doing the assessments, if she doesn’t fill a private slot then someone else will. I find it more troubling that, having been through the wait for assessment with her own children who, she felt, needed urgently assessing for whatever reason, that she would now take the space on an nhs waiting list in place of someone else who desperately needs help, just because she was wondering.
The reality is as someone who has been through this pathway as many times as she has with her children, she really ought to be able to identify these things for herself (which I actually think she has) to self diagnose if that is all that is really important.
But of course that doesn’t create content, does it?

I must admit that I did think it was convenient that she was suddenly sure that she had the most socially acceptable form of neurodiversity and the one that is 'trending' at the moment. I do think that she probably does have ADHD traits because I think there is some evidence of this in her videos and also because there is often an overlap between ADHD and ASD. The ASD though is much more obvious and the condition that's wreaking havoc on their lives.
I guess I'm just pleased that Rigid Rhi who has always resisted any talk of her having any kind of neurodiversity has at least acknowledged she isn't the perfect, superhero mother she always loves to depict. I also hope that at least she will now be put in front of specialists who will be best placed to convince her that there is a lot more going on than ADHD.
The queue cutting is outrageous! Nobody buys the fact that it was almost accidental as she tries to portray. She obviously pushed very hard indeed to be seen because she thought she was entitled to this as their original timescales had moved. She literally couldn't care less that she is pushing other people down the list in order to be seen earlier. I imagine she doesn't even think about this or rationalises that they just aren't as good as her at complaining.
If she getting DLA for all three kids she is raking it in, especially if she is claiming to be a carer for all three.
If she’s gone through right to choose, it really depends which provider sees her. Some of them will recommend autism assessment as well, others won’t. They certainly won’t diagnose both together.
She will do it so she can make her own claim for DLA not only only the kids but for her now to her husband will also claim to be her carer more money for Disney trips
Daddy of 4 has been looking increasingly pissed off of late. Do you think it was an ultimatum? He said he wasn't paying out for these ridiculous trips to Disney that literally no-one enjoys, so she's had to find more income? Which in her book is DLA because let's face it, she ain't making anything from YouTube. Just feels a bit of a coincidence that she chooses now of all times to seek a diagnosis.
Rhi has a reel up about the importance of teaching children about consent from a young age.
I wonder if she always checks in with her own kids about if they are happy to have their own medical details and a camera in their faces which are than plastered over social media all the time.
Also I didn't realise how low her following is compared to alot of other family influencers who are out there. No wonder she always worries about the instagram algorithm and her posts going out on time.

She’s changed the title of the “nervous to share” video to “do I have adhd” clearly not getting the views she wants
