Understood.org survey: Women and ADHD
New research from Understood finds that ADHD in women is overwhelmingly misunderstood. The study found that nearly half (50%) of adults believe that the negative stigma surrounding neurodiversity is stronger than ever. The survey also found that most U.S. adults (56%) agree women with ADHD are perceived differently than men with ADHD, including over three in four women with ADHD (77%) who feel this way.
