General Question/Discussion Do some of y’all have genetic ADHD?

Literally my mom, my sister, my niece, my nephew, and I all have ADHD as well as me and my mom having autism.

Edit: I’m more so talking about ADHD being a dominant trait (at least for my family)

My kid, spouse and FIL all have it. My spouse actually got diagnosed right after our kid did!

I don’t have a diagnosis but I’m pretty sure I also have ADHD and I think my Mom does too, especially now that there’s a kid in my house with the same “brand” of ADHD that I think I have!
