Amen to that (same)
Only way to get through dread is to go through with it. If you want something to stop, finish it. I have pretty light adhd, but for me it was like steeling my mind before base jumping. Sometimes you don’t want to do something. You’re scared or tired but you must FORCE yourself to do it. I have a mantra that kind of helps me. I tell my self that I must do what must be done. And kind of make the action feel like it is inevitable like I will do it even if I don’t want too.
Buddy, I'm like this medicated. I don't cope, I don't manage. I can't get a proper job and I'm increasingly ready to plan my exit.

Normally I would agree but I am in college and have to do math 😔
I just pass the time by. Sometimes working, sometimes internet.
Have you been able to try Adderall? The only thing ever found helpful besides caffeine is coffee fruit extract. It’s the active ingredient in Neuriva for instance, but there are alternatives online as well. It’s not a great improvement, but it s something I think.
