2026-04-08 — Adult ADHD: underdiagnosis, compensation, functional impairment, care access (5 cards)
Adult ADHD evidence differs across diagnostic access, functional impairment, medication choice, and care framing. Keep confirmed and citation-pending sources separate.
So what: DSM-5 changes provide context for broader adult diagnostic access. The key idea is that difficulty may reflect under-detection, not “laziness.” Diagnosis and treatment decisions require a qualified clinician.
So what: Support planning should consider functional impairment areas, not symptoms alone. Confirm any numbers against the primary source before quoting.
So what: Direct stimulant vs non-stimulant comparison evidence is limited in places. This source is a Rapid Review—not a substitute for clinical guidelines. Medication decisions require a qualified prescriber.
So what: Medication and non-medication strategies are combined individually; plans need periodic reassessment. Wording should lock after citations are confirmed.
So what: Use narrowly without over-interpretation; lock text after citation confirmation.
