Adult ADD in Women
1. They aren't alone.
Many women in adulthood who suffer from ADD believe that no one can understand their struggles. Those who do know they are usually very loving and supportive. Women can join forums and support groups online, such as ADDmirable Women, as well as local support groups for ADD/ADHD through ADDA or CHADD.
The most important thing that women with ADD must realize is that they're not all on their own. Adult ADD is often ignored by doctors who are looking for signs that are more typical of boys. In adhd in young women , hormonal changes such as those during puberty, PMS, and perimenopause, can cause or exacerbate ADD.
