Why the upset now? You've lived with this "all your life" and are functioning, what is your real concern here, do you know?
There are many ways to treat this, medication and psychotherapy both work well together.
Most adults with ADHD/ADD were hyperactive as children and probably had it then, according to some experts.
Just because it now has it's own name, symptomology and treatment doesn't change who you are, and that you've been coping. Just that now, because of awareness, you can understand yourself and your actions and feelings much better, and decide which ones you want to work on (medication, therapy) and which ones you will continue to "just" cope with in other ways.
You're still you.
