This discrepancy is attributed to the fact that traditional symptoms of ADHD, such as inattention and hyperactivity, are often overlooked in women. Instead, women with ADHD may exhibit lesser-known signs such as emotional dysregulation, anxiety, and depression.
The Washington Post and PsyPost report that these symptoms can be mistaken for other mental health conditions, leading to delayed or misdiagnoses. As awareness grows, it is likely that more women will seek treatment and diagnosis for ADHD, leading to better mental health outcomes.
