How Do You Manage ADHD and Distractions?

I have been given a very gracious deadline extension for the work I have to turn in in order to pass. However, given the currently overwhelming family circumstances and this stupid ADHD I have, it's so hard to concentrate. I end up writing a sentence or two, then walking around and curling up with the big doggo for a while, go back to the desk, rinse and repeat. How do I make myself focus?

Coffee sometimes has the reverse effect on ADHD. Try it before alcohol because that's a depressant.

I can't say anything about ADHD but the only thing that helps with strong reluctance to focus on things that don't interest me is to give myself extra time and remove all distractions I can. It's not easy though. 😖
