i'd stay away from drugs. i took ritalin and/or adderal from age 7 to 14 for ADHD. if you take stimulants you may feel that they help, but it won't last. it will end up burning you out, where your dopamine receptors are essentially fried and you have trouble feeling excitement or joy.
from my experience the best thing to do is to live a moderate lifestyle. don't use hard drugs (including pharmaceuticals like adderal), drink moderately if at all. diet is also important. make sure you eat plenty of leafy greens, no sugary foods, etc.
one of the most important things, imo, is to stay away from artificially stimulating activities like vijya gaymes, social media and cell phone use, television and movies. your brain is like a vagina or asshole. if you stretch it out all the time with hyperstim, you're not going to enjoy regular sex as much.
pay attention to your biorhythm. when are you the most focused? plan your day to take advantage of these times. for instance, i know that im the most focused when i first wake up, so i take care of things like cleaning the house, writing, programming, business stuff in the morning, as soon as i wake up. between probably 11 and 3 all i can think about are feeding, fucking, and sleeping. if i do all three of those I usually have a second wave of energy for activity. I try to be in bed by no later than ten or eleven.
last and certainly not least: get lots of aerobic exercise, the more intense the better. this is the most important thing for regularizing endorphin your levels. I'd even go so far as to say that people with ADHD are simply physically mal-adapted to modern sedentary and hyper-linear 9-5 robot lifestyles.
