  • Résumé

  • This is part 3 of of 6 on our Neurodivergent side quest, how ADHD affects boys and men. While women get “lost in the diagnostic shuffle”, boys tend to get diagnosed early on because with testosterone they tend to be more likely to have the hallmark Hyperactivity and Impulsivity. They’re more likely to be the kids that just can’t sit still in class and blurt out answers, but while they’re more easily diagnosed, they tend to bear so much more shame over the years.

    So often when men come to counseling dealing with ADHD in adulthood they’ll lament “I just don’t think I’m where I should be in life” because of the societal standards imposed on these men early on. They also tend to have dopamine dysregulation which lends itself to addictive tendencies. They also can struggle with emotion regulation leading to anger outbursts and road rage.

    As always, as well, ADHD is not all bad! Men with ADHD are creative, playful, and make fantastic entrepreneurs!
