Self-diagnosis doesn’t help with relationships IMHO either and I mean that both from a personal and professional perspective.

YMMV but for me, I am an open book. Having the diagnosis meant I could talk to bosses when trying a new med, or explain to them when struggling. Knowing the diagnosis means you immediately diffuse an aspect of a challenge. For me, that has been immensely valuable.
