Anyone else feel like their ADHD was always there but got progressively worse as an adult? (lemmy.world)

I just wonder if it actually did get worse or it just seems like that because as an adult you have a lot more on your plate than you did when you were a kid/teen

You made the best cars too. Shame it's so damn cold there much of the year. I have chosen to live in Imperial Beach, because I can't afford Hawaii, and IB has my definition of perfect weather. Never gets above 85°F/30°C never drops below 40°F/5°C. There's also frequently a steady breeze coming off the ocean. I don't need an air conditioner, an only use my space heater for a couple months overnight each year.

Saab 9-3 Aero was peak car. I get 25-30C summers and -5-+5C winters. Not too different from you, but I usually get snow a couple of random days each winter. Days are short in winter though.

Oh and my very average 1500 sqft house is 10 minutes from a major city center and cost me $300k. How does that compare?

IB is a 4sq mile town that's next to San Diego, and Tijuana. Admittedly my house is almost twice your size, and cost $800,000. I'm also less than a mile from the ocean, so I can bike there with my surfboard, and less than a six hour train and taxi ride from several different climate types.

I loved my 1986 SAAb 900 SPG. I refuse to buy a SAAb that was made after GM bought them.
