A new study of more than 9 million British adults found that people with ADHD died earlier than their peers without the disorder.
On average, men with ADHD died about seven years earlier while women died nine years sooner than their cohorts without ADHD, according to the research.
While the study didn't explore the causes of death, the researchers say ADHD symptoms like impulsivity, hyperactivity, and forgetfulness can lead to "modifiable risk factors."
