Conversation with Andrzej Gryżewski
How can ADHD manifest in men? Mateusz Kowalski and Robert Konecki – authors of the Tutaj Podcast – asked our guest about the difficulties in diagnosing ADHD, its symptoms, and its impact on relationships.
They don't constantly lose everything, fidget incessantly, or interrupt others mid-sentence. For years, no one even suspects they have ADHD, because in adults (men), the disorder manifests somewhat differently than in the well-known pattern observed in children. Diagnosing the problem is complicated by the fact that many men with ADHD appear to function normally – they work, start families, and achieve success. Meanwhile, their inner world is a state of constant overload and frustration.
