Über diesen Titel
ADHD is commonly characterised by traits like impulsivity, difficulty regulating emotions, and difficulty maintaining focus.
But mounting research suggests adults and adolescents with the condition are far more likely to develop substance addiction.
Rates of diagnoses for ADHD have been soaring in recent years and addiction programmes in Ireland report high numbers of people with ADHD seeking help for substance misuse.
On today’s In The News podcast, Eric, Oonagh and Shane, three adults with ADHD, share their journey navigating addiction.
And the head of the charity ADHD Ireland Ken Kilbride calls for addiction services to be better equipped to help people with ADHD who come to them.
Presented by Bernice Harrison. Produced by Andrew McNair.
