Many women in adulthood who suffer from ADD believe that no one can understand their struggles. People who are aware of the problem tend to be extremely compassionate and caring. Women can find support groups and forums on the internet, such as ADDmirable Women and local support groups for people with ADD/ADHD through ADDA or CHADD.
The biggest thing most women with ADD need to realize is that they're not alone. Adult ADD is often misunderstood by doctors looking for signs that are more typical of boys. In addition, hormonal fluctuations during puberty, PMS and perimenopause can be a source of confusion or even worsen ADD symptoms.
