Yeah, a lot of my experiences tally with yours. I'm undiagnosed. Not interested in a formal diagnosis, and I seldom mention it. The only reason I have any inkling that I have this condition is that my wife was listening to a radio programme about it and said "Come and listen to this! This is you!".
But yeah, I think of the time I spent trying and failing to do relatively difficult maths and feeling miserable about it, because I "needed" it for a programing career makes me unhappy.
I can still do logic, so programming was just fine (until the lecturer asked us to write a program to solve a quadratic equation. Fortunately, that never came up in my actual career for some reason).
Don't let anyone tell you that you need mathematics for programming, it's actually not as highly correlated as people believe. Reasoning about SQL joins or writing your own SSG or other programming tasks are step-by-step. Recursion, that makes my head hurt though.
