It doesn't matter if you don't buy it. You don't represent everyone with ADHD because it's not the same for everyone. You should be well aware of this. You sound a lot more like people that don't believe in ADHD at all than someone who suffers from it tbh. It's ludicrous of you to insinuate that people just aren't working as hard as you.

TLDR: The more severe the ADHD to more you need to externalise but at the same the harder it is for you to use the tools.

Can confirm, I have severe ADHD and because of that even externalising things to notes/planners/reminders etc. does not for me because I can't keep track of anything or remember to write stuff down, remember to read it etc. And because I have severe ADHD I need to externalise more things than people with mild ADHD so the difficulty to use that stuff increases exponentially as you look at more and more severe ADHD cases.

I hope I got my point across because I can't think right now.
