Is there any hope for a hunter-gatherer brain in this grain-fed society? What can i do about it?

Stop blaming your brain and start taking responsibility for your behavior. Your brain can't force you to act one way or the other. You're always in control of yourself. If you want to be disciplined, then start disciplining yourself. Early to bed, early to rise, fast regularly and meditate daily.

Talk to your doctor/psychiatrist. You might need a change of meds or a higher dose of your current ones.

Fuck off, neurotypical. You don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

This is why you're weak and addicted to drugs. You have to believe it's possible to change before you can change. If you're just going to lie to yourself and claim that everyone who ever achieved anything was only lucky, then you're going to stay a bum forever.

They work fine, but i don't know how to control the inevitable superfocus and crash-and-burn cycles ;_;

I've been doing relatively well, but it's those boom-and-bust cycles that are consuming my innards...
I have no choice unfortunately, i need to find a way to either cushion that blow or get over it fast.

Done that a million times gramps, consumed and tried all productivity advice there is and ended up hating myself even more and being even more useless. This time, with a calendar and a to-do list nicely decorated :)

Kek, I'm the same way. Except that I'm Bipolar type 1.
