Why Diagnosis Matters
Undiagnosed ADHD can lead to significant academic and work challenges due to difficulties with concentration, time management, and task completion.
Individuals may experience chronic underachievement, frequent job changes, and financial instability. Relationship issues are common, as impulsivity and inattentiveness can strain interpersonal connections, leading to misunderstandings and conflicts.
Mental health problems, such as anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem, often coexist with ADHD, exacerbating stress and reducing quality of life. Additionally, undiagnosed ADHD increases the risk of substance abuse and risky behaviours, further impacting overall well-being.
Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial to mitigating these risks and improving outcomes.
