For me personally, it can be like that for sure. Please remember that it can also be other things, but if you notice that you fit the diagnostic criteria, you can always get evaluated.
also make sure to Google realistic portays of the diagnostic criteria.
First year of uni I gave adhd a google, and dismissed it. Over the next few years I slowly realised that those simple words that didn’t mean much, actually attempt to simplify much larger issues I didn’t even notice were there. Personally I’d suggest reading about the lives of people with adhd and seeing if their stories feel a bit too close to how yours is going.
Or just chat with people with adhd, we’ll clock you in a matter of days (if not minutes). There’s a certain specific vibe to neurodivergent folks, I can’t describe it in mere mortal words but it feels like communicating on the same wavelength, suddenly talking becomes easy
