I've got the opposite problem. I would like to sit in one place for 8 hours... or even 1 hour. But I can't sit still for more than 20 minutes. Anyone got any tips for that? I've been prescribed adderall before (I basically asked for it), and it was good, but I've cut it out since I don't like what it did to my personality.

Consider it a blessing in disguise (look at all the articles about how sitting for long periods is awful), which prevents you from wrecking your posture/health. It’s good to keep moving around! Some folks use Pomodoro timers to stretch/flex/move regularly :-) Maybe what you want is a way to maintain focus — not necessarily hold still. Don’t mean to be patronizing; I’m trying to change my habits to move around more.
