This comment is extremely rude.
"Have you just tried not having ADHD?" is what I've been told thousands of times. Yeah man, I've tried. I am extremely fit, exercise all the time, have a great Vo2 max, lift weights, sleep 9 hours a night, and don't snore. I'm vegetarian and eat very little sugar (I've even done keto for five years with no change in symptoms).
If I was neurotypical, sleep and exercise would help a lot more. But I'm not. I instead have to use dozens of alarms on my phone, pair programming, hyperfocus training, and deadline panic to get through the work week. Home stuff remains in shambles, still haven't figured out how to do the dishes or put clothes away.
And I've got a pretty mild case.
Some of my friends are much much worse off.
