Ignore the advice of anyone who doesn't have ADHD, or a medical degree with a speciality in ADHD treatment. Anyone that tells you that you just need to try one "trick", a planner, a mindset change, default mode networks, "try sleeping more", whatever, can either
never understand what it's like or is trying to sell you something. Or both. If someone neurotypical gives you advice, just smile and nod, and ignore it. If someone tells you ADHD is a "superpower" promptly ignore them. Unfortunately, this often applies to generalist doctors who don't specialise in ADHD.
The reality is that there is no single thing that will help. You'll have to try shit and see what works for you. What one person swears "fixed" them might do nothing for you.
That said, the one thing that is the most likely to work out is medication. Get yourself a diagnosis, try the meds, see if it helps. Caffeine is fine, but it's no substitute for the real stuff.
