I've never done neural feedback myself so I'll have to look into it. Medication is only partially effective on me but doesn't help with me improving my behaviours just reducing harmful ones. Probably even if I took meds as a kid it wouldn't have been life changing, everyone is different in that way
It's worth a shot. It's not a cure and takes conscious effort to apply, but it does help, for me at least. I still have the behavioral issues, basic self-care, being on time, ect. But I work on those everyday, but I work in international freight and processing shipping documents is incredibly boring and repetitive. But I was the top performer because I was able to apply the concentration techniques I learned during nerofeedback, it took some trial and error, but eventually I found podcasts and audiobooks helped distract the busy part of my brain just enough to let me focus on my work.
Best of luck, and feel free to ask any questions if you have any.
Glad to see its been so good for you, if you have any recommend resources that would be nice
