The life expectancy of adults with attention-deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is significantly shorter than that of peers without this condition, a large study warns.

Adults diagnosed with ADHD tend to have notably shorter life expectancies, according to a new study from University College London. The research analyzed data from over 30,000 UK adults with ADHD. Researchers found that men with the diagnosis live approximately seven years less,

We can’t even focus on staying alive. People diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in the UK are dying earlier than their peers, according to a new study. Researchers from the University College London conducted a study and found that men with diagnosed ADHD have their life expectancy reduced by 6.

Inadequate support may decrease the lifespan of people diagnosed with ADHD, according to a new study of adults.

A study shows UK adults with ADHD have a life expectancy 6.78 years lower than the general population, underscoring the need for improved healthcare support.

A new study that looked at people with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, or ADHD, has found a correlation between people with the disorder and a shorter life expectancy.

Adults with diagnosed ADHD could face a shorter lifespan than their peers, a new study in the British Journal of Psychiatry has found. Compared to the general population, men with ADHD could die around seven years earlier, while women with ADHD face even harsher odds, having roughly nine years less than the general population.

Researchers suspect unmet treatment needs contribute to the shorter life expectancy for patients living with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

As if having attention deficit hyperactivity disorder isn’t bad enough: New research this week suggests that people with ADHD are living shorter lives than expected. Scientists at University College London in the UK conducted the study,
