I was 30 when I got my ADHD diagnosis. My wife was same, and last year at 50 she got her AuDHD upgrade diagnosis.
It helps. First to understand WHY things are how they are, second to learn to draw not only from the ADHD coping handbook, but the autism coping handbook.
Is it lifechanging? Only in a small way, probably.
