Hey @Donna2 

 

Welcome to the forums. Personally, I was diagnosed by a psychiatrist. My GP is great, but she consults with my psychiatrist for things like a diagnosis. I know the costs for seeing a psychiatrist can be prohibitive and bulk billing psychiatrists are hard to find these days. So a lot of people do get diagnosed by their GP. The other option as @tyme mentioned would be to get a mental health plan to see a psychologist.
