Since i was diagnosed in 2019 (i am nearing my 30's today) it helped me a lot in identifying issues that ADHD was causing and how to work around them. Anger issues, object permanence, executive dysfunction, sensory issues, anxiety became easier to manage, once i became aware of the nature of these issues and how to remove some of the stress related to these issues.
I never got to medicating, because i lived in a country where, any kind of ADHD medication is either illegal (stimulants) or not yet licensed (non-stimulants). There was a third option, sort of a third-line, anti-depressant that had a ton of side-effects, which i decided to skip.
Now i moved to [Northern Europe] and started the process of getting diagnosed here from scratch, since i am unable to transfer my records. Time consuming and expensive? Very much. Not sure that the whole thing will result in anything useful for me, but i still feel that i have to try.
