Do I Have ADHD? What ADHD Looks Like In Women

Do I Have ADHD? What ADHD Looks Like In Women

Dr. Rebeccah Lyle, a psychiatric nurse practitioner, joins Kristie and Felicia to explore the nuanced reality of ADHD in women and AFAB individuals. Together, they break down how social expectations of "good behavior" sometimes mask ADHD symptoms in girls, leading to life-changing diagnoses in adulthood when the pressures of career and motherhood reach a breaking point.

Some takeaways:

  1. Reframing neurological differences as strengths
  2. Understanding the psychological toll of masking and how it inevitably leads to burnout
  3. Shifting the narrative from self-blame for a "lack of discipline" to advocating for systemic accommodations and self-compassion
