Is ADHD like a mental version of Progeria?

Given the rate and age of onset of dementia / Alzheimer's for people with ADHD, I can understand where you'd get this. But no, I wouldn't use the example as evidence of advanced aging or senility, it happens for kids, too.

mostly a joke just because im getting older and this is very familiar.
