My wife has similar struggles. She told me that she hates dieting but every time she does atkins or keto (I don't think the specific choice matters much as long as it's healthy) her head starts to clear almost immediately. It may take a few days or a week, but she says the effects are very noticeable. At the same time she also starts jogging, biking or doing some other physical exercise daily.

It's nothing that addresses ADHD directly but it's the best thing she's found to cope and get her back on track.

I would advise some caution with ADHD meds and how you quit as well. I know it's extremely uncommon but someone close to me suffered a psychotic break directly after quitting cold turkey. The quitting may have even been an effect of the psychosis but in an abundance of caution please be mindful of your headspace and if there are any red flags, please talk to someone about it.

Our mental health is more fragile than we realize, we need to talk about it so we can all deal with these issues more effectively.

There's a lot of great advice here and I'm glad you reached out. Keep it up - you are not alone friend.
