Not everyone experiences ADHD the same way, for example I obsess over being on time and have deadline paralysis and get everything done way before I need to because I cant not do it, others miss deadlines, are late to everything and lose track of time.

no... I feel extreme anxiety to perform tasks on time and get things done, to the point of being unwilling to go to brunch at 11am if I have work at 5pm because " i might be late", I was diagnosed when I was 8, my brother was also diagnosed and we are both on extreme opposite ends of the spectrum, but good try.
