69. What is the link between ADHD & Anxiety? (Part 1)

Continuing my series on comorbidities with anxiety, today I talk about ADHD and anxiety. This is an important relationship to address because anxiety is ADHD’s most common comorbidity, so there is a very clear link between the two.

Moreover, there are important implications when trying to treat both ADHD & anxiety.

In Part 1 today, I discuss the relationship between ADHD and anxiety and how although anxiety can exist on its own separate from ADHD, anxiety can often develop as a result of ADHD (especially when it's not managed effectively).

Be sure to then tune in next week when I go through differentiating ADHD from anxiety and how to best support these kiddos!
