Over 366 million adults worldwide are affected by symptoms of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder which is a developmental disorder characterized by an ongoing pattern of inattention, hyperactivity, and feeling restless. Yet research suggests that women are often underdiagnosed in childhood because they do not display the hyperactive symptoms.  

In today’s episode, Quinn sheds lights into some of the adult symptoms women with ADHD experience that often go undiagnosed. In the episode, Quinn teaches listeners:


1. What ADHD is and how’s it diagnosed
2. The different subtypes of ADHD
3. Less known symptoms that lead to it being underdiagnosed in women 

Mind Renewal Tip: 

ADHD in women is less about being hyperactive and more about being overactive and the mental load. 

Scripture Renewal Tip: 

Jesus says, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." Matthew 11:28-30
