Rethinking ADHD: Insights from a Psychologist.

A psychologist who specialized in ADHD shares her personal experience of being diagnosed with the condition as an adult and how it changed her understanding of ADHD. She highlights the misconceptions around ADHD in girls and women, who are more likely to internalize their impulsive behavior and compensate for their challenges, making it harder to diagnose. The author urges professionals to have more humility and learn more about the condition, and encourages women to seek well-informed professionals and support groups to find relief.
