I have multiple direct family members with ADHD. One is on medication, the others are just using different coping skills to manage it. The question you need to ask is what negative consequences is it causing in your life? Once you have that answer, you can determine the right actions to mitigate those problems, now that you know the root cause.

I'd recommend working with whomever diagnosed you (or having them refer you to someone) who can help you figure out those answers.

Thanks for the input. Parsing what is a negative consequence of this compared to a negative consequence of other things (e.g. lack of support systems at work, inefficient delegation, etc) will be tough and a good exercise to go thru.
