Understanding ADHD in Women provides years of research that proves why medical professionals no longer believe that Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is a condition only found in young, school-aged boys, as it was once believed. In fact, extensive research has proven that the inattentive form of ADHD, which the majority of women have, can be just as difficult, if not even more so, than the hyperactive/impulsive form, like the majority of men have.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (Also known as ADHD) presents itself in three main symptoms: inattention and hyperactivity or impulsivity.

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (also known as ADHD) is a disorder that occurs in kids, teens, and adults. This book focuses on what exactly ADHD looks like in adults. An estimated 11.3 million adults in the United States alone have been diagnosed with ADHD. Many adults went undiagnosed as kids and like me have no idea why they acted a certain way or had such difficulties in certain areas.  

Medical professionals are now seeing that inattentive ADHD is just as severe as the hyperactive/impulsive type, if not more so, and it is also likely to carry on into adulthood. Because women often suffer with the inattentive form of ADHD, we often go undiagnosed until adulthood, and that is why we need more help in adulthood managing our symptoms. These books can give you the exact tools that you need!
