Introduction
In my previous article, I discussed the challenges of early adulthood with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. They included difficulties with money management and substance abuse. This article will expand upon this topic and discuss more challenges with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder in early adulthood.
Difficulty In The Work Force With ADHD
One difficulty young adults with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder may face is difficulty in the work force. Individuals with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder have a tendency to experience difficulty concentrating and are often impulsive. This can lead to difficulty having a relationship with their bosses. According to drthomasebrown.com, the following can be stated about having difficulty in the work force with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder:
Sometimes work problems come not because a person lacks the ability to do the job, but because of how they go about doing it. Many individuals with AD/HD report that they are very productive at their work tasks, but tend to get themselves into trouble with their boss for chronically arriving late at work, cell phone bills, insurance and car payments while still
putting gas in their car and having some money in their pocket to go out once in a while. They quickly discover that extensions of due dates are much harder to get from the landlord and credit card companies than from teachers in junior high. Chronic problems with planning and being impulsive with money can have lasting painful consequences in adulthood.
Difficulty With Relationships With ADHD
In addition to difficulty in the work force with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, another area where young adults with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder may experience difficulty is relationships. Young adults with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder may experience difficulty having conversations. They may often be impulsive at times. This may turn people off and prevent them from developing a further relationship with individuals.
