Very similar story here but I'm not resentful of the late diagnosis.

Getting through most of my 20s without meds gave me more confidence in my own abilities.

If I had them earlier? Maybe my life would have been easier but maybe not.

Even today there are times when a bit of ADHD helps me make better decisions by just letting my mind wonder.

I think that using stimulants to control the ADHD like an on/off switch is the best of both worlds.
