ADHD often presents differently in girls and women, making it harder to recognise and diagnose.

Here are some key signs to watch for:

๐Ÿ‘‰ Difficulty focusing, especially in quiet or structured settings
๐Ÿ‘‰ Frequent daydreaming or โ€˜zoning outโ€™
๐Ÿ‘‰ Heightened emotional sensitivity and feeling easily overwhelmed
๐Ÿ‘‰ Challenges with social interactions and making or keeping friendships
๐Ÿ‘‰ Masking behaviours โ€” trying hard to โ€˜fit inโ€™ and hide symptoms

These signs can sometimes be overlooked or misunderstood, which is why early recognition is so important. If this sounds familiar, weโ€™re here to help with expert assessments and support tailored just for you.
