Research highlights a link between ADHD and auditory processing disorder (APD), with individuals with ADHD showing a higher likelihood of auditory processing struggles. For instance, a 2017 study found that children with ADHD performed worse on auditory processing tasks compared to neurotypical children.
Both conditions can make it hard to process sounds, particularly in noisy environments. People with ADHD often face sensory processing challenges, leading to sensory overload from loud noises, bright lights, or even strong tastes.
Proper diagnosis and support can improve quality of life for those with ADHD and APD. Understanding their struggles allows for tailored strategies that ease everyday challenges and enhance communication.
