ADHD and Money Management: A Struggle for Many Adults - This podcast episode explores the challenges faced by adults with ADHD in managing their finances, often leading to debt due to poor organization, impulsivity, and forgetfulness. A woman from Norwich shares her journey of accumulating credit card debt before her 2023 diagnosis and how she cleared half of it with help from a debt charity. Another woman from Gorleston discusses her struggles with debt during university, while a third woman in her thirties shares her experiences with shame and navigating legal systems. StepChanges survey reveals that 97% of neurodivergent people find money tougher, with 85% of those with ADHD agreeing, yet over 60% avoid seeking help or disclosing it. Banks and officials promise clearer communication and earlier support to ease these barriers.
