What if the true face of ADHD isn't the hyperactive boy disrupting the classroom, but the quiet girl lost in her own thoughts? Uncover why girls are often overlooked in ADHD diagnoses during childhood, leading to a later-life reckoning where rates between genders even out.
We peel back the layers of societal expectations and biological nuances, revealing how inattentiveness in girls leads to underdiagnosis—and the significant impact this oversight has on their lives, from self-worth to increased chances of physically abusive relationships.
Our conversation explores the complex world of ADHD as a manifestation of chronic stress adaptation. We highlight how misattributions to hormonal factors and rigid school systems ignore the ADHD diagnosis, exacerbating the challenges faced by women who internalize rather than externalize emotions. Listen as we dissect the intricate interplay between dopamine, sensory inputs, and diet, offering insights into managing ADHD symptoms and understanding its comorbidities.
Join us in shedding light on the unique struggles of women with ADHD, where societal judgments add an extra layer of burden. From the challenges of parentification to the role of estrogen, this episode opens the door to a more nuanced understanding of ADHD in women, paving the way for an ADHD survival guide designed with women in mind.
