This is why so many women don't realize they have ADHD.

In this episode of The Mel Robbins Podcast, Dr. Hamdani, a board-certified psychiatrist and leading expert on ADHD, explains why ADHD is so often missed, misunderstood, and misdiagnosed in women and girls.

For decades, ADHD was studied primarily in young boys who were hyperactive and disruptive in the classroom. But what about the girls and women who weren't disrupting anyone except themselves?

The ones who felt constantly overwhelmed, emotionally flooded, anxious, or exhausted.

The ones who spent years thinking there was something wrong with them.

As Dr. Hamdani was explaining this, I felt so seen.

And I know so many women can relate - women who were diagnosed with anxiety or depression, but no one asked, “Could this be ADHD?”

ADHD isn't just about attention. It's also about emotional regulation.

And if you've ever felt like your emotions swing from one extreme to another while the logical part of your brain is telling you everything should be fine, this conversation will explain so much.
