on SubstackWe’ve talked a lot about ADHD this week and the shocking number of women who are diagnosed later in life. I’m curious about what you’ve discovered about yourself in midlife and beyond. Maybe it’s a diagnosis or a passion or a learning about why you are the way you are. Whatever it is, I’d love to hear about in the comments.
👉 For today’s Thursday thread, here’s what I’d like to know:
Are you someone who was diagnosed with ADHD later in life? How do you manage your ADHD?
What other things have you discovered about yourself in midlife?
Welcome to the Thursday Threads, a weekly chance for us to connect with one another in the comments. Join me and other readers as we navigate important discussions. And a note: a difference of opinion is always okay, being unkind to one another is not. Let’s keep these conversations respectful.

Thanks for sharing the recording! I wasn't able to make it this afternoon and am grateful to be able to give it a listen. I'm 57 and seeking an ADHD assessment (first consultation with a psychiatrist next week). My executive function has all but disappeared since menopause (8 years). I believe I masked my way through life until the pandemic forced me to slow down, and now that the masks are off, I can't seem to find my way back. Maybe I don't want to. But I can't afford not to as a single person with no chance of retirement. I appreciate you having these conversations.
