What Concerns Young Adults with ADHD

Featuring Wes Crenshaw, PhD

Is your teen with ADHD about to make the sometimes-bumpy transition into young adulthood?

As they approach adulthood, teens may be optimistic, terrified, or lost. Each category comes with its own set of benefits and challenges.

“Hope” is what separates successful teens and young adults with ADHD from those who do not thrive, says psychologist and author Wes Crenshaw. It can be hard for a young adult to feel hopeful when they think everyone else is succeeding at life while they are not. Dr. Crenshaw discusses how hope is something teens and young adults can achieve, not just something they feel.
