“I had a diagnosis after two or three days of quite intense tests with a psychologist, and I have ADHD, and have had since childhood,” Denise confirmed.
Speaking of her ADHD symptoms, Denise noted that one of her symptoms is interrupting people a lot. “If I don’t say what I think is important, I forget it. There’s a desperation in me that I need to get out what I want to say, which is very much a symptom.
“It drives the girls mad,” she said of her Loose Women co-stars.
Denise went on to explain she’s also been feeling fatigue, another symptom of ADHD. “It’s not just tiredness,” she said.” I know energy levels fall as you get older, but I’m so tired at the moment. I’m exhausted, even things I’m looking forward to doing, I can’t be bothered to do, I just want to lie in bed.”
