I want to thank you for providing this source. It's given me more to think about. While the information provided doesn't provide and definitive answer for my case. (How could it?) It does shine a light on issues that I personally experience. While I don't fully relate to symptoms like, poor impulse control and I don't fail to organize my day-to-day, what does stand out is the "persistence toward the future" as he points out early in the video. I have started many personal projects: I have bought a guitar because I want to perform music. I buy notebooks with the intention of writing a story. I bought expensive microphones with the plan to work on a YouTube channel. I have purchased courses for coding to start a fresh career. I have not achieved a large goal in anything like what I have just mentioned, not since obtaining my Bachelor's degree. I struggle with delayed gratification. This may or may not be ADHD or it could be another disorder.

Thank you again, it gives me s direction for seeking healing.

I'm very happy to hear that what I wrote actually helped someone. You don't have to relate to everything said in the video because everyone experiences ADHD differently. But if you relate to most of the stuff siad there then you very probably have ADHD. If you want to learn more about the topic then continue here: https://www.reddit.com/r/ADHD/wiki/index/ .
