Has anyone figured out a way to get past ADHD and actually sit down to start tasks such as reading and writing without having to use brain frying meds? Here is a list of things I have tried none of which have worked

To do lists (various kinds, short, long, one item)
Alarms, timers (of various kinds pomodoro etc)
Meditation (of various kinds mindfulness, guided, creative visualization, mantra, etc)
Typewriters
Exercise (variations from weightlifting, cardio, HIIT)
Locking away all electronics in a timed lock box for periods from 5 hours to 5 weeks
Giving someone my router
Wearing a watch that shocks you if you don't stand up and do jumping jacks
22 different Nootropics
Changing diet in various ways
Listening to white noise or music

the problem ive found with all concentration "aids" is that they require a prerequisite level of concentration and commitment that the zoomer adhd brain struggles to overcome. even if it can be managed for a short while sooner or later the method will break and the habit wont form and your back to square one.

meditation probably helps lots, but meditating in itself is a task that requires patience, consistency and concentration.

Get rid of your smartphone. Entirely. Combine that with keeping track of time.

The reason you fail is that you have no desire to succeed.

Schedules kind of work for me but I think I need to be more autistic about it. White noise also helps, mostly with getting me to sleep.

The weird thing with ADHD is how coffee affects us. Instead of getting the buzz and hyper energy like normal people, it forces us to focus. So if you space out 4-5 cups a day, you should be a thinking machine.

Another thing I try to do is not overloading myself with work. If I have to do too much in one period of time, I get sick of it and frustrated and don't want to do any of it for however long (can be weeks). I need a lot of time to do what I want and study restricts that so it has that effect. So for me, I only let myself do one lecture a day and so much assignment work a day, giving myself plenty of down time as a reward for the work I've done. I'm not perfect with this but it does help.

For 99% of people, you're going to need drugs to maintain parity with the normies. At least if you ever feel tired at school or work, you can pop one of the many stimulating pills you've been prescribed and surpass your peers when it comes to the volume of work. I would have fallen behind and burned in university, which would have led to me getting a shit job were it not for dexamphetamine.

You should also remember that every chunk of work you get done is a chunk you don't have to do later and a chunk closer to completing your task. It's okay to break things up if it keeps you motivated in the long run.

Discipline, interest in your field, and routine.
Drugs help the average zoomer memorize all the garbage they need for their exam but they will never be on par with someone who actively studies and learns, I know kids who memorize (and probably take Adderall) hundreds of theorems and definitions yet they struggle on applying them when it comes to practice.
Drugs help you only if you have the attitude in the first place, it's not a "pass exams easy" thing.

In conjunction with your last meal, take 500mg of tryptophan and 100mg to 300mg of P-5-P, and take 500mg of DLPA 3 times a day, 4 hours apart after an hour of eating food.

Take 1g of DLPA every 4 hours, 1 hour before or after a meal, twice a day, my schedule is when I wake up and then at 12, the intense adrenaline and dopamine state lasts roughly 4 hours after taking it if you have adhd like me.
