Unfortunately, this is true. The standard training of ADHD evaluation and management should be prioritized in ALL primary and psychiatric residency programs. The strong evidence of cultural differences within its presentation MUST also be acknowledged to prevent misdiagnosis and mistreatment.
Fellow physicans, we have a responsibility to learn how to identify, evaluate, treat (or defer to specialty providers), common conditions that impact our communities. ADHD wears many masks and therefore, often missed. This can be of significant consequence for individuals and families affected by ADHD.

It's October 10th, 2020! But more importantly, it's officially #WorldMentalHealthDay 🧠💜
Mental health is IMPORTANT and it cannot be stressed enough. We as mental health advocates need to encourage more people to work toward having a healthy mind, and we also need to support them and help them find ways to do so. Especially during this pandemic, where fear and uncertainty is high and many people are in situations that are causing their mental health to deteriorate without them even realizing it!
Self isolation, being jobless, not having the necessary resources to survive, being anxious about the health or your family and friends, stuck in a household where your life may be in danger, the list goes on!!! Let's work on preserving and strengthening our mental health, as well as the mental health of those who we love. Not just for this global pandemic, but for any and every day moving forward. It's not enough to say it, but to take action too! 𝙃𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙮 𝙒𝙤𝙧𝙡𝙙 𝙈𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙖𝙡 𝙃𝙚𝙖𝙡𝙩𝙝 𝘿𝙖𝙮!!! 🙏🏾 | #DrDawnPsychMD #ADHDwellnessCenter

ADHD in girls-Are you missing conmon signs?
Here were mine…
Chatty Cathy
Perfectionist
Often Bored
Procrastinator
Emotionally Sensitive
I made good grades. I was a very creative girl with a huge personality. But unknowingly, I was silently battling with an internal struggle that prevented me from functioning at my best.
ADHD often presents differently in girls vs boys which results in under-diagnosis.
Learn the Signs. Act Early.
