I went to therapy. Figured out that a lot of the things I blamed on ADHD were actually learned behaviours from childhood to try and keep people around me happy and my life free of conflict. I started to learn that I didn't need to reply every email, slack, teams, whatever immediately. I didn't spend so much time listening to the critical voice in my head running me down. I can do things that are good for me and take care of myself. My life didn't need to always be on the edge of crisis. It's taken a long time but I feel like things are better these days. I certainly have an easier time working.
