And I stand by that.
That is a hill I will die on.
We are under-diagnosing ADHD.
They need to be validated.
They need to be seen and heard, listened to.
And I think if women are not getting that from their clinician, I personally want women to know that they can go back again.
If you really think that something's not right,
Advocate for yourself.
And that can be really hard to do if you're a woman whose brain is sort of really mushed and you're struggling and you're anxious.
But please find that strength to do that because it can be life changing.
And I've seen it be life changing.
Yeah, and then you have to put the cycle on again because it's been in that long.
Well, hopefully it won't be bad.
I think it's important that I say that, that not all women are going to have a horrific time in perimenopause and menopause, regardless of whether you're neurodivergent or neurotypical.
But I suppose if you have got ADHD and it already is causing you problems, then you might want to be prepared for the fact that your hormones are going to fluctuate.
And when your hormones fluctuate, that can have an impact on your chemical messages in your brain.
and you may start to feel like you're not quite as in control as you were.
So the scaffolding that we've already mentioned might start to wobble a bit.
And I think if you are aware of that and you can know what's happening and be prepared for it, that can be so much easier to deal with.
Most of the women I see who have really gone into, you know, catastrophic decline at this point, the hardest thing for them was not understanding what was going on.
