Keep in mind it manifests differently for everyone. I have it pretty mildly, so it's fairly well managed through guanfacine, a similarly mild medication, and lifestyle changes. The only reason my psychiatrist and I know I have it is it "flares up" pretty badly when I'm stressed and my life easily goes off the rails as I increasingly begin to exhibit more ADHD behavior.
It's also possible you don't have it as neurotypical folk experience most ADHD symptoms from time to time, just with less frequency and severity.
