Adult ADD in Women
1. They are not alone
Many adult women suffering from ADD feel that they are the only person in the world who understands their struggles. Those who do know they are usually very supportive and loving. Women can find forums and support groups on the internet, such as ADDmirable Women, as well as local ADD/ADHD live support groups through ADDA or CHADD.
The most important thing that women with ADD should be aware of is that they're not isolated. Adult ADD is often misunderstood by doctors looking for signs that are more typical of boys. In signs of adhd in women during puberty, PMS and perimenopause can mask or exacerbate ADD symptoms.
