  ABSTRACT: ADHD is characterised by a persistent and impairing pattern of inattention and/or hyperactivity/impulsivity that causes significant impairment to daily life. This study explores quality of life domains in adult ADHD using grounded theory driven data collection and analysis. Three semi-structured interviews with adults with ADHD with remission of symptoms were conducted. The experience of living with ADHD was reflected in seven themes: lack of a supportive network, labelling and attitudes from others, barriers placed on interpersonal relationships, psychological responses to ADHD, loss of opportunity to fulfil educational and occupational roles, therapeutic interventions, and attitudes to medication. This narrative generates conceptual knowledge of experiences of living with ADHD in adulthood that have not previously been considered. Developing understanding of the intricacies of peoples’ experiences of living with ADHD is clinically important as these specifics can help shape the variety of multidisciplinary support options.
