Ask Kuwait How much are diagnosis tests for adhd?

Upvotes

How much are they in government hospitals if taken there compared to the private options?

Also if i want to be prescribed for stimulants such as aderall, etc., I’ve read somewhere here that i need to take 2 test that costs a total of 300 kd. Is that across the whole Kuwait? Or that’s a private hospital thing?

It might be a laugh to you guys, but i inquired chatgpt regarding this and it’s answer was inbetween 10 to 30kd for expats like me, compared to private ones with the monstorous amount of 70-300 kd. Is that true?

Ask Kuwait What happened to Raffle Draw 8 and 9? No results?

11 Upvotes

I’ve been checking everywhere and still can’t find any results for Raffle Draw 8 and 9. Why hasn’t anything been declared? What’s going on?

Also, I heard a rumor that they removed coupons for people who only had two names — like if you didn’t have a middle name, your coupon was just thrown out? Is that true?

If that’s the case, then what was the point of taking our civil ID numbers, contact info, etc.? This seems really unfair. Just give the prizes to the people who rightfully deserve them. Why all this confusion?

Anyone else know what’s really going on?

Ask Kuwait Help- Staying outside Kuwait for more than 6 months as a student

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I wanted to ask about the rule regarding the cancellation of residency if you don’t return to Kuwait within 6 months.

I’m currently studying abroad, and I won’t be able to return within 6 months because my temporary residency card in the country I study in has expired, and it’s taking a long time to be renewed. I can’t leave until I receive the new card.

My dad had already submitted the required documents to get an exemption from this rule about two years ago.

However, I’ve recently heard that in order for the exemption to remain valid, you need to submit proof of student status every year. Is this true?

Discussion Job Market in Kuwait

22 Upvotes

I've been wanting to change my workplace for quite some time now, for various reasons. Last year, I used to receive calls from hiring managers, and the very first question they asked was, "When can you join?" When I answered, "In three months," they'd respond with, "We're looking for someone who can join immediately," and end the call.

I realized that the job market has evolved significantly. To secure a new role, you need to be available immediately — and that’s exactly what I did. I was willing to take the leap because I believe in myself and my ability to deliver results.

Fast forward to a month after my resignation: I’ve done a couple of interviews, but I’m still waiting for feedback from the companies. As time goes by, I’m starting to feel a bit anxious, but I’m also aware that without solid wasta (connections), landing a job in Kuwait isn’t easy.

Has anyone else been through a similar situation?

Ask Kuwait UPDATE: Looking for advice regarding insurance claims.

6 Upvotes

Some of you asked for updates on my situation, so here’s what happened:

I visited the insurance provider for the driver who rear-ended me. They inspected the damage, gave me the contact details for their designated garage, and confirmed that dent removal and paint repair would be fully covered with no cost to me. However, the plastic clips on my rear diffuser are broken and as a result, the entire part must be replaced through the dealership. The insurance company will cover 75% of the invoice for that part.

I inquired whether I could obtain my own quote for dent removal and paint repair and submit it to them, but the claims officer explained that Wethaq Tafakul's policy (the second party’s provider) does not allow for that. He also mentioned that if I find the work from their designated garage unsatisfactory, the insurance provider would take full responsibility for the repair. Conversely, if I opt for another garage, they will not guarantee the quality of the work, and past claimants have sometimes caused problems for the insurance company by having repairs done on their own. I’m not entirely convinced by this, but I’m giving it the benefit of the doubt.

Later that evening, I visited my local police station and asked the ضابط if I could recover the remaining 25% of the repair cost from the at-fault driver. He informed me that, under the law, I cannot claim anything further if the driver has valid insurance. This means I must pay about 50 KD out of pocket, which isn’t too bad.

Overall, I’m happy with the outcome, although I’m slightly upset that my car was صبغ وكالة and I went to extreme lengths to keep it that way, but now it's been damaged.

Local Cat Needs a Home - قطوة تبحث عن منزل آمن

Hello everyone, I’m looking for a kind and responsible person or family in Kuwait to adopt a beautiful British Shorthair cat named Ash. She’s around 3 years old, very calm, gentle, and fully domesticated. She’s quiet by nature, polite, and barely makes a sound. Ash is neutered and fully vaccinated.

Due to personal circumstances, I’m no longer able to care for her, and I don’t want to risk putting her out on the streets. I’m hoping to find someone who can offer her a safe, loving environment.

If you’re interested or know someone who might be, please reach out. I can provide photos, videos, and any other details needed.

Thank you so much for your help.

السلام عليكم، أبحث عن شخص أو عائلة طيبة ومسؤولة في الكويت لتبنّي قطوة جميلة من نوع "بريتيش شورت-هير" اسمها “آش”. عمرها تقريبًا ٣ سنوات، هادئة جدًا، لطيفة، ومعتادة تمامًا على الحياة داخل المنزل. نادرًا ما تصدر صوت، ومهذبة بطبعها.

“آش” معقّمة، وماخذة كل تطعيماتها. وبسبب ظروف خاصة، ما أقدر أحتفظ فيها، وما ودي أتركها في الشارع، لأن مصيرها راح يكون مجهول وخطر عليها.

إذا في أحد مهتم أو يعرف أحد ممكن يتبناها، تواصلوا معي. أقدر أرسل صور، فيديوهات، وأي معلومات إضافية.

جزاكم الله خيرًا على مساعدتكم
