Yup, the earlier the interventions happen the better. Finding out life will never be what you thought at 34 is rather challenging.
The average age for diagnosis is currently around 7. ADHD according to Dr. Russell Barcklay has a 33% lag in the development of the frontal lobes vs chronological age. So the delay isn't as noticeable at 3 years as it would be at 7, or 12, or 18. Dr. Russell has some great Ted talks about it.
