Description
This week Diosa and Mala discuss why it's so common for women, especially Latinas, to be misdiagnosed or under-diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). They're joined by Angelica Diaz, an associate marriage and family therapist, who specializes in late-diagnosis of autism and ADHD in the Latine community. Together they discuss how marianismo and machismo are partly why Latinas get under-diagnosed.
