I'm not at all trying to be a dick here but those are exactly the feelings that lead me to get an ADHD diagnosis. Not caring almost feels good until said problem bites you in the arse.

If life is going well and you are happy then don't worry. If the tendencies you described are messing things up then maybe go get a test. My life is so much better now.

Edit:

Shoutout to /r/adhd!

Also, video dude wrote a book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Taking-Charge-Adult-Russell-Barkley/dp/1606233386

Edit 2:

Here is an informative and adorable video for anyone unsure if they have ADHD. It's great. Go watch it. https://youtu.be/cx13a2-unjE

Less chaos, more control, more options for what to do and how to live, way more confidence and less disasters and fuckups.
