I wasn't sure how serious you meant that - but I feel like I have to point out that - while indeed helpful - medication isn't motivation in pill form and by itself can't break the cycle.
I was more serious than not, I'm a disorganized mess with classic ADHD tendencies. The meds get me at least halfway to normal, which is usually enough to get me to push myself the rest of the way.
To your point if I'm not motivated at all, the only thing Adderall does for me is slows down my thinking and reduces the brain chatter.
Yeah, me too.
Just checked: The next page of the series is about coping and they have it as a work in progress exclusive to Patreon - but that was three months ago.

It's not written, but take meds I guess. Or if you're feeling fancy, cognitive behavioral therapy.
(checks bank account) amphetamines it is.

I'd like some serotonin too. You know if you have any to spare and it's not too much trouble
