Receiving an ADHD diagnosis as an adult can be a significant and often emotional milestone. For many, it brings a sense of clarity, validation and understanding but it can also raise new questions about what comes next.
At Autism & ADHD Assessment Hub, we recognise that diagnosis is not the end of the journey. it’s the beginning of a new phase of understanding, adjustment and growth. That’s why we place a strong emphasis on post-diagnostic support, ensuring that every individual feels supported, informed and empowered moving forward.
As part of this commitment, we are pleased to introduce we have acquired Stimuli, a specialist digital support platform designed specifically for adults with ADHD.
Stimuli has been used within a number of NHS pathways in recent years, receiving excellent feedback for both the quality of support and its accessible, easy-to-use format.
“I built Stimuli over six years working closely with NHS teams and the people with ADHD actually using it. When I saw what AAH were already doing, especially the post-diagnostic support, it was obvious there was something worth expanding together.
Our plan now is to make that support more practical and more accessible for everyone coming through and I’m really excited to achieve that.”
— Harit Gillar, Founder of Stimuli
Why Post-Diagnostic Support Matters
An ADHD diagnosis provides important insight into how your brain works but understanding how to apply that knowledge in everyday life takes time.
Many adults find themselves asking:
- How do I manage my focus and productivity?
- Why do I struggle with certain routines?
- How can I improve emotional regulation?
- What strategies actually work for me?
Post-diagnostic support helps bridge the gap between understanding ADHD and living well with ADHD. It provides practical tools, strategies and reassurance as you begin to navigate daily life with a new perspective.
What is Stimuli?
Stimuli is a digital ADHD support service offering structured, guided self-help through short, accessible audio sessions.
Designed with ADHD in mind, the platform focuses on:
- Simplicity
- Flexibility
- Practical, real-world strategies
All content is developed by clinicians and ADHD specialists, combining evidence-based approaches with an understanding of the challenges faced by adults with ADHD.
Importantly, Stimuli is not intended to replace therapy or clinical care. Instead, it acts as a supportive tool that complements your assessment and any ongoing support you may choose to access.
How Stimuli Works
One of the key strengths of Stimuli is its ADHD-friendly format.
Sessions are:
- Short and manageable (typically 5–10 minutes)
- Audio-based, so you can listen on the go
- Delivered gradually to avoid overwhelm
- Designed to build habits and consistency over time
Rather than requiring long periods of concentration, Stimuli fits into your day in a way that feels achievable and sustainable.
You can access sessions from your phone, making it easy to integrate into your routine – whether that’s during a commute, a walk, or a quiet moment at home.
What You Receive Through Us
As part of any adult ADHD assessment with Autism & ADHD Assessment Hub, you will receive:
Access to two Stimuli courses free of charge

This ensures that you not only gain understanding from your diagnosis, but also have practical tools to begin making meaningful changes.

The first course, Getting Started with ADHD, is designed as a foundation for your journey.
It explores:
- What ADHD is and how it affects the brain
- Common patterns and challenges in adulthood
- Emotional regulation and thinking styles
- Practical strategies to manage day-to-day life

Choosing Your Next Step
Following this, you can select a second course that aligns with your personal goals.
Available topics typically include:
- Productivity and focus
- Organisation and planning
- Relationships and communication
- Sleep and wellbeing
- Emotional regulation
- Lifestyle and daily routines
This allows you to tailor your support based on what matters most to you.
Building Confidence Over Time
Living with ADHD is not about “fixing” who you are, it’s about understanding how you work best and building strategies that support you.
Tools like Stimuli can help you:
- Develop greater self-awareness
- Build practical, sustainable habits
- Reduce overwhelm
- Feel more in control of your daily life
Combined with your assessment and post-diagnostic session, this creates a more holistic and supportive pathway forward.
A Supportive Pathway, Not a One-Time Event
At Autism & ADHD Assessment Hub, we take a neuroaffirmative approach, recognising and valuing individual differences while supporting each person to thrive.
Your diagnosis is just one step. What comes next is equally important.
By combining:
- A comprehensive clinical assessment
- A personalised post-diagnostic session
- Ongoing access to tools like Stimuli
we aim to ensure you feel supported, informed, and confident as you move forward.
Moving Forward
If you are currently going through the assessment process, or have recently received your diagnosis, we encourage you to engage with the support available to you.
Start small. Stay consistent. Be patient with yourself.
Understanding ADHD is a journey and with the right tools and support, it can also be an empowering one.
