Adhd

In adult ADHD, the reason it can be challenging to diagnose is because women have learnt masking behavior. They've learnt how to mimic neurotypical behavior that's socially acceptable. So they're just being them, you know? The issue is life stresses outweigh the masking. It gets to a point in adult who will be like, I can't do this anymore. Something is not right because your coping is outweighed by the consequence. Is ADHD in any way a spectrum? So can you actually display some of these symptoms but not necessarily qualify to be diagnosed? And then you kind of like, because I feel like I might be, it's like me, I'm diagnosing.
