Adult ADD in Women 1. adhd symptoms in adult women are not alone Many adult women with ADD feel that they don't have anyone in the world who understands their struggles. Those who do know, however, are often extremely supportive and loving. Women can find support groups and forums on the internet, such as ADDmirable Women, and local support groups for ADD/ADHD through ADDA or CHADD. Women with ADD need to be aware that they aren't the only one. Adult ADD is often misunderstood by doctors who are looking for signs that are more typical of males. Additionally, hormonal fluctuations during puberty, PMS and perimenopause can cause or worsen ADD symptoms.
