That might not be that late. I finally got diagnosed at 41, and my psych said adult ADHD being diagnosed so late is surprisingly common.

In retrospect, it's obvious I've struggled with it for most of my adult life, but I learned to cope. Usually by self-medicating. Like you, Adderall seems like a winner.

Heck, some places and/or doctors still think that it's solely something for children, and adults can't even have it, and so flat-out refuse to diagnose adults. Thankfully this is changing.
