No, you can't baring brain damage.
Adhd is a developmental disorder. This means that our brains didn't develop properly and our frontal/prefrontal cortex doesn't work as it should. Our brains are physically different than people without adhd.
You might get diagnosed as an adult, but it's something you're born with. Like autism, adhd isn't something that you can just come down with a case of like depression or anxiety.
So no adult ever gets brain damaged? Or are you agreeing that humans can develop ADD as adult?
