I really can’t speak to your having ADHD or not, but there are many who go undetected until they become adults. I would say the majority on this site. Among other reasons, a high IQ seems to help those afflicted escape detection through high school, sometimes college, and even the majority of their lives, not that they don’t have ADHD related problems.
When I look back on my childhood, I can see where anyone familiar with ADHD would have instantly singled me out.
As you learn more about ADHD and its effects, you may decide you don’t have it, or you may become more convinced that you do. Regardless of your belief or diagnosis, it’s good to have you on the site, either as someone with ADHD or someone who can help others differentiate between ADHD and whatever similar problems you might have.
