ADHD After 60: Thriving in Your Senior Years

Have you spent decades wondering why you struggle with attention, organization, and follow-through while others seem to manage effortlessly? Are you a senior adult facing new cognitive challenges and unsure if it's normal aging, dementia, or something else entirely? You may have ADHD that went undiagnosed your entire life.

ADHD doesn't disappear with age. Millions of adults over 60 are living with undiagnosed attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, often mistaking their symptoms for character flaws, laziness, or inevitable decline. This practical guide addresses the unique challenges and opportunities of ADHD in later life, from late diagnosis through treatment and daily management.

Inside this book, you'll discover:

How ADHD presents differently in seniors and why it's often missed or misdiagnosed as dementia

The emotional journey of late-life diagnosis and how to process decades of unanswered questions

Medication options specifically for older adults, including cardiovascular considerations and drug interactions

How hormonal changes affect ADHD symptoms in women during menopause and beyond

Non-medication treatments that work, including therapy, coaching, exercise, and mindfulness approaches

Medicare navigation for ADHD treatment coverage, prior authorization, and appeals

Building structure after retirement when work no longer provides external organization

Financial management strategies for ADHD brains in later life

Home organization systems designed for how your brain actually works

Memory supports, medication management, and daily living strategies

Relationship patterns shaped by ADHD and how to repair and rebuild connections

Leveraging ADHD strengths like creativity, hyperfocus, and resilience in retirement

Future planning including advance directives, housing decisions, and communicating your needs to caregivers

This is not another book written for young professionals or parents of ADHD children. This guide speaks directly to adults in their 60s, 70s, 80s, and beyond who are navigating ADHD alongside retirement, health changes, caregiving responsibilities, and the transitions of later life.

Research shows that ADHD treatment works at any age. Understanding your brain and implementing the right strategies can dramatically improve your quality of life, no matter when you receive your diagnosis.

Includes self-assessment tools, medication reference charts, tracking logs, Medicare guides, planning worksheets, and conversation scripts for talking with doctors and family members.

If you've spent a lifetime feeling like you're different, disorganized, or somehow falling short, this book offers answers, validation, and practical help. Your best years may still be ahead.
