My son is now 17 and in high school in regular classes with some special ed support and a heavy dose of accommodations due to his still severe fine motor deficits and ADHD. He takes vyvanse daily for the ADHD which helps a bit with the focus but certainly doesn't "fix" everything. He marches in the band, is generally a really good kid, gets along with others, etc. Sometimes his impulsivity gets in the way and he lands himself in some trouble; he does go to therapy to work on dealing with his frustrations and work on skills for self-regulation.

It can be taxing to have to be more than just Mom with him. Particularly as he's gone to high school, I've found myself really having to play advocate for his rights and needs more which is frustrating. I'm a teacher myself, and it aggravates me to no end that my fellow teachers don't work with and do for my son what I do for my own special needs students in my own classroom. It can be a bit of a battle with the school/teachers at times, but I know what his rights are, they KNOW I know that, so generally they end up doing what they really have no choice it doing to help him.
