I see a number of post on here talking about getting an ADHD diagnosis later in life. Is it worth pursuing these kinds of diagnosis later (I’m in my 30’s ) if you feel like you’ve “adapted to it” and lived with it not knowing what it was? Or does it really make a difference to seek professional help? Is there a benefit to knowing about it now?

If you need to know for sure in order to let go of shame and appreciate yourself for who you are (impulsivity and shite working memory and all in my case), it could be worth it... But if you can function just fine in your adult life and have no trouble knocking out that shame without diagnostic validation, it is possibly not worth it to go through the process.
