#36As someone that you corresponded with a bit I am glad to hear you got help and got your problems sorted. I want to share a bit why I wanted to help with the rest of HN. I throughout my life thought many ailments were my "problem", ranging from simple depression, bipolar, alcoholism, drug dependancy and tried the methods successful for each one to "cure me" to no avail.

It's nothing that I worried about but I didn't want to keep neglecting suggestions and missing an opportunity for something that can turn out to be a benefit that increases the productivity of my lifestyle.
Sometimes that's what it takes, the only way you'll figure out if you don't need them is by trying them out.

I've been neglecting my ADHD for two years now and I finally set up an appointment. I keep having the same high and lows and the cycle doesn't stop and it doesn't feel right conforming but I'm going to try the pills anyways and see if it helps.

Pills are just one part of a solution. Proper framing of your routine is important. Goal-oriented training is also good. Lack of focus is our dilemma. Everything that gets us on a track and keeps us there is beneficial.
They (any.do+evernote) are still the same data dump and nothing really beats off my current set up which is simply google calendar, post it notes on mirrors and walls, behind doors and other places. That's the reminder and keeping in focus part. What I'm really looking for is a Google Glass AR app to visualize statistics and basically the game of life and to have it in my field of vision at least turned on every 15 minutes throughout my whole day.
It's funny that people with ADHD, or any other mental condition are more prone to accept transhumanistic technology without worrying about dehumanization.
I'm completely fine walking with a Vegeta-like scouter to stay on task. Eventually it'll become habit, like the post it notes.
I can also completely accept some sort of solar powered tattoo, in the shape of a watch or anything that'll allow the tattoo to create a hologram, that beams like a simple pager of my next thing to do, powered with an API transmitted through my phone through Bluetooth.
You know one of these days I'll tackle funding a project that helps ADHD people with different ways of learning and tackling tasks.
