The Impact of ADHD on Women's Daily Functioning and Mental Health

Women with ADHD often struggle to keep up with household chores and deadlines, leading to sleep deprivation and stress. As responsibilities increase, it becomes harder to manage time effectively. This issue can also affect young girls. For women who retire or experience major life changes, the lack of structure can worsen symptoms and result in decreased functionality or depression. Coping mechanisms that were previously in place may no longer be available, making it important to assess the current situation and find new ways to adapt.
