Yeah I tried most of this. I exercise regularly, have tried going out to walk in nature after work or in the morning, bright light in the morning, melatonin … it all helps a bit. Maybe it helps some people enough, but in my case you can live almost perfect epitome of health and balanced life… and then you relapse and your brain is mush for a day or two. It is pretty easy to self-medicate, eat complete junk, not sleep/sleep all the time, quit relationships or do other really dumb decisions that might have serious consequences down the line when the crash comes.

So yeah, no. ADHD is pretty serious, let’s take it seriously. Morning jog won’t fix you. ADHD-specific therapy is the most important in the beginning, then you need to find drugs that work. Check out Buprion.
