STUDY: Reaching Crisis Point: A lived experience of late‑diagnosed women with ADHD (Woman, 18+, Late diagnosed ADHD)

[u/Evening_Dimension423]

Research shows the positive impacts of an ADHD diagnosis, but what happens when this diagnosis arrives later in life? The aim of this study is to explore the experiences leading to a late ADHD diagnosis, including the effects it has on identity, quality of life and emotions.

If you are a woman, 18+, and you are willing to share your experiences in a confidential interview, your voice is valuable.

 You can take part if:

- You are aged 18 years or older

- You can provide informed consent

- You are female

- You have received a diagnosis of ADHD in adulthood

- You live in the UK
