Adult ADD in Women
1. They are not alone.
add symptoms in women with ADD feel as if they are the only person in the world who understands their struggle. People who do know they are usually very loving and supportive. Women can join support groups and forums online, such as ADDmirable Women and local support groups for ADD/ADHD through ADDA or CHADD.
Women who suffer from ADD should realize that they're not the only ones. Adult ADD is not well understood by doctors, who are often searching for signs that are more typical of boys and their behavior. Additionally, hormonal fluctuations such as those experienced during puberty or PMS, and perimenopause, can cause or worsen ADD.
