ADHD & Alcohol | Using alcohol to cope with hyperactivity & restlessness
Did you know 43% of people with ADHD will develop a problem with alcohol? It's so common because we use alcohol to self medicate our symptoms of Hyperactivity, Restlessness, and Impulsivity. But Alcohol is a band aid fix, and in sobriety, we learn healthier strategies to cope long term and live better, more productive lives with ADHD. I am not a doctor and this is not medical advice.
