Godfrey-Harris and Shaw (2023)

This study explored the experiences of medical students with ADHD, who often face bullying, isolation, and a lack of support, especially after disclosing their diagnosis. Many struggled with mental health and felt pressured to hide their difficulties due to a competitive and unforgiving medical culture. Despite these challenges, students also reported strengths like empathy and resilience, and the study calls for medical schools to offer better support and adjustments to help them succeed and avoid burnout.
