I was reading that people with ADHD have can have stronger psychological symptoms stemming from trauma: We are 4 times as likely to develop PTSD. And you’re twice as likely to develop ADHD if you’ve survived a trauma. This is fascinating but researchers are still working to understand the link.

Yes, and, ADHD is a neurobiological condition so can't be *caused* by trauma, although trauma symptoms could look like ADHD (but then the ADHD symptoms would go away once the trauma is treated). People with ADHD are more likely to experience relational trauma because we struggle so much more than neurotypical people do in this world. Kids with ADHD get so much more criticism, and quite frankly are more likely to be abused/maltreated in both overt and covert ways. If this was a reading by Gabor Mate do yourself a favor and burn it 😅 he's awful.
