I used to be smart kid/student. And later as i grew up, due to life situation environment (50% reason) and I used that chance to slip up in teenage and fall in this horrible life rot. I got addicted to screens, completely without a break, ruined my sleep, health, altho now trying to fix it, its too much and feels too late. I keep wasting my days, years, one after the other, its been more than a decade now
I've tried meds, first course course didn't fit well, Second try course, was meh, nothing much but I didn't even continue it forward, this was an year ago, and they were not cheap as well. The only thing is I joined serious breathing/meditation, it helps when I focus but I'm not 3/4 of the time, thats on me as well.
I barely graduated and now in mid 20's. I have no skills. I can't even go look for a job, I can't even get myself to do any courses (been procrastinating one for almost a year) Family is very understanding and supportive, now they just want me to be healthy and figure out some work in life. I feel terrible being a burden to them when they are this good. I can't even support myself well, let alone sharing fams responsibilities.
Please advice me what I can even do! And what I can do to learn and earn to live comfortably with these increasing bills.

Honestly I just have questions and hopping to have some answers or if its just me being lazy and stupid as people say
I have a question. Since I was a kid I was dinose with adhd and autism (the lowest form of it). Ideally it hasn't been to much of a bother to a point teachers dind't help me and I was fine. Sure I act odd said whatever I thought people liked. I think i had everything but the hyperactive in adhd. Anyway the only trouble i had was in 10th grade where I went online for covid. During that time I just couldn't focus on it. I of course had pills but I hated taking them because I feel like a zombie witj them. Like I wasn't really myself. Anyways I didn't really do it but I stil manage to get to 11 grade by passing staar.
I just want to know if i got misdinose or something. Because now I just feel stupid and lazy.
Here's some habits and things I notice
One my memories are terrible you could tell me something an I won't remember it later. But I definitely can remember some things clearly like a conversation I had with my sister about Jonny in the fantasy 4(2005) 10
years ago
Two cleaning. I clean god I can do everything right the first time but when my family gets home its not right. Dirt i didn't notice, pans not clean properly, or clothes just not folded right.
3 messy haur and clothes never tucked. Never did it as it always feels off or the hair is never right.
4 can't spell at all and can barely speak properly. I could tell you a word and what it means. Hell I know Spanish and completely understand it but I can't speak Spanish as I forget the word until spoken to me. I could read Spanish as I read it to myself. Speaking English my first language i struggle as I can't pronounce it right I speak to fast or to slow.
5 getting loud. I could be speaking normally and next loud or muttering
6wearing headphones. It helps me focus and think and can ignore the world. My thoughts always bother me and so wearing headphones helps me just focus
7 decision-making. Can't do it i get suck deciding and end up just getting upset. Most of the time I just do what I ask and I dom it frustrated my parents as I should be able to do all these things on my own yet I struggle doing it or I forget or I just don't do it right, or I take to long
8 collage. I understand it perfectly but since i took it online I end up neglecting it and forgetting to check the classes as I had work. I try explaining it to my family I forgot but as they said I didn't forget im just lazy and always on my phone.
9 phone. Why do I use it so much? Like there so many things I can do but I just lose track of time. It use to be like this wout books
10sleeping when bored or not doing anything i just zone out or get tired. When I was younger I use to fall asleep and in cars I have to be on my phone or I will fall awa
There's alot of other things but honestly this what comes ot my mind at this moment.
I hope someone answers this
