Discovering ADHD in adulthood

Since having my daughter in 2021 I have suspected I have ADHD. I think I was good at masking some behaviours and just deemed myself as a procrastinator before having her but I have found myself perpetually overwhelmed since then and I have realised that loads of my behaviours since way before my daughter could indicate ADHD. I have scheduled an appointment with my GP and asking for a referral via right to choose but I know this could still take a year. So I am wondering what to do in the meantime. Those that have discovered ADHd as an adult what have been your coping mechanisms, have you found therapy with an ADHD specialist useful? I just need to get on top of the stress and overwhelm as it is affecting work.
