The neurotype itself is set in stone sometime during gestation and will never change. But the management of it will absolutely vary over time. Focus abilities and attention spans have to be intentionally maintained. Those non-medication ADHD management things are v important (but won’t be able to replace medication for most people). You also sound like you might be burned out or otherwise anxious 🫶

Yeah your symptoms can get more severe in response to environmental or physical factors like stress, lack of structure, or changes in hormones
