ADD/ADHD

It is generally accepted that fewer girls are diagnosed with ADD/ADHD than boys (in childhood) - however, the number is almost equal in adults.
New research has demonstrated that women are in fact more impaired with their ADD than the men.
This study documented that women were more likely to have co-morbid emotional symptoms (depression and anxiety) with their ADD, and more sleep problems.
