Treatment with Meds: Have you had a formal evaluation and diagnosis? Did you start on a trial of medication at any point? Stimulants work well for ADHD. They are dramatically life changing for those who respond. Since these are scheduled drugs you will need a face to face visit with a Psychiatrist or Primary Care Physician who specializes in ADHD. Best of Luck!

Exercise: Vigorous aerobic exercise for an hour every day will help a lot and possible even decrease the need for medication. Yoga also helps.
