In this video I highlight the different ways ADHD symptoms tend to express themselves in girls. For a better sense of ADHD in general check out "How to Know if You Have ADHD:"    • How to Know if You Have ADHD  

To clarify: I am not suggesting that there is a "girl" or a "boy" form of ADHD. Any gender can have the hyperactivity component, and any gender can be primarily inattentive. In this video I talk about what is more common; however, it's important that we learn to recognize both forms in all genders.
