1. They are not alone
Many adult women suffering from ADD feel like they have no one in the world who understands their struggle. People who do know, however, are often very loving and supportive. Women can join support groups and forums online, such as ADDmirable Women, as well as local ADD/ADHD live support groups through ADDA or CHADD.
Women with ADD must realize that they're not the only people with the condition. Adult ADD isn't well-understood by doctors, who are typically looking for signs more typical of boys' behavior. In addition, hormonal fluctuations during puberty, PMS and perimenopause can cause or worsen ADD symptoms.
