Studies are male oriented totally and old need to be updated researched more. Look up studies on women and ADHD. Time is zero no sense of time so tests r not designed for anyone but typical brains research on women it's so messed up how different it is experienced and as a woman with ADHD it's ruined my life thus far

I have ADD but identify as nonbinary despite being biologically male. Enbys and trans folk should also be factored into the research.
