People are downvoting you, but I think you are on to something.

My parents and grandparents are/were quite similar to me, but never diagnosed. It wouldn’t surprise me if a few of them also have/had ADHD.

That said, without therapy or medication I noticed that they learned to just plough through. That was their coping strategy. It isn’t 100% successful, but it was what they had.

I also think the distractions of modern life don’t help. With smartphones, the internet, games and streaming services - there are just so many distractions that make life harder.

Perhaps “ploughing through” would work better without all the distractions.
