diagnosis and treatment has been reported in clinical settings and administrative data in the United States.
This study confirmed the reported increases in rates of ADHD
diagnosis among adults, showing substantially lower rates of detection among minority racial/ethnic
subgroups in the United States. Higher odds of negative outcomes reflect the economic and personal
consequences that substantiate the need to improve assessment and treatment of ADHD in adults.

Prof. Yamalis Diaz Ph.D.:
So happy to join executive producer, Nancy Armstrong, and the #CBSMornings team to
help launch the incredible new ADHD documentary, #TheDisruptors. I and several other ADHD experts share our thoughts from a clinical perspective, and the families and celebrities with ADHD highlight
the lived experience.
The documentary does a great job of highlighting both the challenges *and* the strengths of the ADHD brain and will help reduce the stigma and misunderstandings about ADHD.
