The treatment would look different if it's determined to be something else, for example: ADHD symptoms look very similar to what happens if you chronically get bad sleep, or if you're too sedentary and your endurance is low, or if you are depressed/anxious and that is causing you to feel unmotivated or inattentive from the mental load, etc. But otherwise, if you are having "ADHD-like" symptoms, the same coping skills will likely help independently of the label.

I always encourage people to not put too much weight on a diagnosis to explain themselves, but rather as a more functional, strategic tool. As in, this isn't a conclusive label that forever describes me, but rather the current strategy/approach that's being used (sometimes for insurance or access purposes).
