Challenges Faced by People with ADHD in the Criminal Justice System
Individuals with ADHD face unique challenges within the criminal justice system due to misconceptions and late diagnoses. Often, undiagnosed neurodivergent conditions like ADHD, dyslexia, and autism lead to underachievement in education, reliance on state support, and increased vulnerability to mental and physical health issues. Self-medication for mental distress can also contribute to their involvement in the justice system.
