Adult ADD in Women

Many women who are adults with ADD believe that no one understands their struggles. The people who do know, however, are often very supportive and loving. Women can find support groups and forums online, like ADDmirable Women, as well as local support groups for people with ADD/ADHD through ADDA or CHADD.

Women with ADD must be aware that they aren't the only one. Adult ADD is not well understood by doctors, who are usually looking for signs that are more typical of boys' behavior. In addition, hormonal fluctuations, such as those experienced during puberty or PMS and perimenopausal symptoms can cause or worsen ADD.
