Yes: There exists a distinct possibility that you have adhd that was missed. There are other diagnoses that can masquerade as ADHD on the surface as well. Either way, I think your concerns would be a good thing to address with a psychiatrist with expertise in adult ADHD.

Right or wrong: You sound like you definitely need specialized help. It may have to do with your personality traits and experiences before being a well described disease such as ADHD. You will definitely benefit from a thorough psychological assessment.
