Women with ADHD face unique challenges due to societal expectations, gender roles, and the tendency for their symptoms to be overlooked or misdiagnosed. Often masking their struggles, they may internalize feelings of failure, anxiety, or low self-worth, especially as they juggle responsibilities at work, home, and in relationships. Hormonal fluctuations further impact ADHD symptoms, making focus and emotional regulation even more challenging.
Masking:
Many women with ADHD may internalize struggles, leading to feelings of inadequacy or guilt while masking symptoms to meet societal expectations.
Multiple Roles:
Women are often expected to juggle multiple responsibilities, such as caregiving, household management, and professional roles that can exacerbate feelings of overwhelm and burnout.
Perfectionism:
Many women with ADHD struggle with perfectionism, trying to meet or exceed the high expectations placed on them. They may also experience imposter syndrome.
Negative Sense-of-Self:
Women with ADHD may experience heightened emotional sensitivity, self-criticism, and struggles with self-worth.
Hormonal Influences:
Hormonal fluctuations during menstruation, pregnancy, and menopause can exacerbate ADHD symptoms. Women may experience increased forgetfulness, mood swings, or difficulty concentrating during different phases of their hormonal cycle.
Where ADHD coaching helps the most:
Without proper support, many women experience burnout. With awareness, ADHD coaching, tailored strategies, and self-compassion, they can harness their strengths and thrive.
