Title: I have a strong case of ADHD. Can&#x27;t take medication that would help me due to other medical reasons. I&#x27;m also not a social person and now have developed strong anxiety after consistently failing for a decade (working on that with a psychologist&#x2F;psychiatrist but it&#x27;s been a year and so far no significant improvement).<p>I have long periods when I just can&#x27;t focus on doing anything at all (2-10 weeks) followed by short periods of extreme focused activity (1-3 weeks).<p>I&#x27;m unable to hold a job. I&#x27;m &quot;the best programmer they&#x27;ve ever seen&quot; but only for the first month - then they start to hate me because I&#x27;m not working.<p>Programming is the only thing I can do - and the only thing that makes me enough money to survive. I was unable to finish high school, anything resembling academia sounds like absolute torture.<p>What to do? Please help me.
