ADHD and Anxiety Comorbidity: Impact on Health and Wellbeing

In adults with ADHD and comorbid anxiety often experience difficulties sleeping which in turn can negatively impact their health, wellbeing, and functionality. They are more likely to develop delayed sleep syndrome, get less than six hours of sleep a night, and experience extreme tiredness during the day. Furthermore, those who experience sleep problems as a result of ADHD alone are more likely to develop a comorbid anxiety disorder.
