Hiding In Plain Sight

There is a stereotype that ADHD is associated with hyperactive boys who cannot sit still. ADHD in girls and women may present itself differently compared to boys and men, which can lead to underdiagnosis or misdiagnosis.

Many with ADHD may experience imposter syndrome in which they doubt their accomplishments and fear being exposed as a fraud.

ADHD and social anxiety often coexist, with individuals experiencing both conditions, as they share overlapping symptoms and can mutually influence and exacerbate each other.
