ABSTRACT
Although Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is not caused by distorted thinking patterns, it is not surprising that pessimistic attitudes and a negative self-image often emerge over the course of a life spent living with ADHD, particularly if it has gone undiagnosed until adulthood. These outlooks are likely the downstream effects of longstanding and repeated frustrations in various aspects of life, such as school, work, relationships, and any endeavors from which you derive your sense of self.
