ABSTRACT
The demands of employment present unique and ongoing challenges to someone with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), whether you enter the work force straight out of high school, after college, or at any point in your life. The various contexts in which people work are so varied that it is difficult to pin down a specific set of coping strategies relevant for all workers with ADHD. A stay-at-home parent in Philadelphia will face different demands than a Silicon Valley software designer, who has different circumstances from a waitress working in a busy restaurant in Traverse City, Michigan, all of whom share a diagnosis of ADHD.
