No matter how well my intentions are.
I can manage for a few months here and there, but I feel like I could barely stay in a job for even a year...

Thank you for sharing your story it means a lot that you are comfortable replyig and sharing you personal experiences
have you experimented with meds? Maybe different ones might help you even further. That must get you down at times but i'm sure you excel in other things or hobbies. Have you been working at places you have great interest in? A 9 to 5 seems draining for anyone nevermind an add'er who has to sit still, focus and have a repetitive routine.
Thank you again
