> Serious question: does this spell doom for people with ADHD?

Caveat: undergrad in math, working on a part time coursework masters (I'm hoping to talk someone into being my advisor for a part time thesis)

No more so than any other academic subject.

If anything, I've found math more friendly to my ADHD than philosophy, literature, etc.

I successfully completed an Applied Math masters and defended a dissertation on symplectic integration. But that didn’t quite give me the superpowers my professors had.
