The problem is that there are many other mental disorders that have a profound effect on executive function as well

It's a disorder in our society, because it require you to do task you've been ask to do, but if you would just live your life I don't think you would call it a disorder, more like a different way of processing tasks

(edit) I'm not saying that changing your environment would resolve the problem, since I'm under medication I can clearly do more things on my free/personal time than before. Hmmm yeah, I kinda lost the track of my thoughts now, can discard as it's an edit. stop.

There are very few videos games I can play because of this. I love gaming, but finding one that I like is extremely challenging.

I just saw someone on Reddit who claimed this profound boredom with everything was why they didn't have ADHD. Apparently the list of symptoms they were reading did not accurately describe the depths of ADHD boredom, and they thought their boredom was a worse breed that indicated some far worse mental problem.

Had to tell 'em.

I have no hobbies I enjoy longer than about a month except gaming, and even then I still get like a month mileage out of each game. I can't hold a job because every time I start a new one it's like a ticking timebomb in my brain until I can't handle it anymore. Even if the job is easy and the people are nice. Something about the repetitive schedule and saying/hearing/doing the same thing every day brings me to a near panic attack level of restlessness and anxiety.

And then forget all of it when you go to talk to someone about it.

I hate my brain.

Oh, but on a positive note. I’ve been able to go back and rewatch my favorite shows like every season is brand new except for a few episodes that really really stood out to me.

I remember things from my early early childhood. My older sister doesn't remember shit from back then. She has no idea what our forst apartment looked like and when we moved and all that. I remember everything.
But when i put my screwdriver somewhere, 4 seconds later, the screwdriver might as well not exist anymore.

I hate it when I forget about my shirt

You clearly don’t understand ADHD.

Here's an expert talking about outcomes https://youtube.com/watch?v=26V6LCbKXJU&si=Mu1mO845lvJYCgH8

Tldw: worse outcomes in education, relationships, careers, automobile safety, finance. So all you have to do is not be in school, drive, be in a relationship (romantic or not), have a career, have credit, etc. Your suggestion that it's just the environment and all we have to do is change how finance, the job market, education, and human relationships work and get fully self driving cars right now is not only woefully uninformed but also such a massive undertaking to the point of being a joke.

It causes significant impairment on my ability to live my life, regardless of the environment I am in.

There is no change in environment that will solve ADHD.
