Adult ADD in Women
1. adhd in adults women .
Many adult women suffering from ADD believe that no one can understand their struggles. Those who do know they are usually very supportive and loving. Women can find support groups and forums online, such as ADDmirable Women, and local support groups for people with ADD/ADHD through ADDA or CHADD.
Women with ADD need to be aware that they aren't the only people with the condition. Adult ADD isn't understood by doctors, who are usually looking for signs that are more typical of boys and their behavior. Additionally, hormonal fluctuations during puberty, PMS and perimenopause can mask or exacerbate ADD symptoms.
