Impact of ADHD on Life Expectancy

Research indicates that adults diagnosed with ADHD may have a reduced life expectancy compared to the general population. A comprehensive study involving over 9.5 million individuals in the UK found that men with ADHD lose approximately 6.78 years of life, while women lose about 8.64 years. Specifically, men with ADHD have an average life expectancy of 73.26 years, compared to 80.03 years for those without the disorder, whereas women with ADHD can expect to live 75.15 years against 83.79 years for their non-ADHD counterparts. The study highlights that various modifiable risk factors, such as unhealthy lifestyle choices and co-occurring mental health issues, likely contribute to this disparity, suggesting that improved treatment could enhance life expectancy for those with ADHD.
