Spoken like someone who has never really had to deal with severe focus problems.
That's a lot like telling someone who is learning to walk again after an injury that they don't need those fancy "crutches" or "slings" that pansies use - people with real gumption just hop out of bed. If they break their noses a few times along the way, they just need to remember that they aren't taking the path of least resistance, and that it's a sign that they aren't weak people.
I'll probably be starting medication management in about a month, after 31 years worth of trying to make it work for myself. It was manageable previously because I had lots of structure provided to me to lean on - from school, from bosses, whatever. Now that I'm the one providing structure for myself and others, I've found that I simply can't function. I've tried for three years to self structure with all the self-help you can think of. I don't want to be medicated forever, but I really need something to help me focus just a little bit so that I can develop good habits.
