it is absolutely worth it. It's so life-changing that it's worth the struggles to get on a medication. I'm on Adderall, and have tried Focalin and Ritalin but neither worked for me (caused anxiety among other issues), once you find the right medication for you it'll change your life for the better.
Also for what it's worth, it might not be as hard as it seems to get diagnosed and get a prescription. I originally went to my family doctor talking about my experience and research into ADHD, and she prescribed a low dose of Adderall that day. The real hassle, at least for me, has been having to remember to call every month to have the doctor refill my prescription, and scheduling and attending appointments every 3 months. There are no auto-refills for stimulants, at least in the US, because it's so federally regulated. and it's a medication you'll be on for life most likely. even so, it's definitely worth it in my opinion.
