If you're aware of how adhd works then you of all people should know that "throw your phone in the toilet" is shite advice that only someone who doesn't know how adhd works would give. If you have adhd then you should know better than that.

I agree on phone usage restriction apps. You can also extend the usage as a reward for achieving things which would work as an external motivation that ADHD people need. I also agree with other people that it won't even be close to solving ADHD problems, people were just arguing with you about different thing because they thought that you have the same perception of ADHD as the top level comment.

People are incredibly fast to claim that somebody doesn't understand how ADHD or procrastination works, just because they said something they don't quite agree with.

"throw your phone in the toilet" is not and has never been the solution to this problem in any universe under the sun, so no, it's not just because they said something I don't like. They're just backpedalling.

When there perfect fixes aren't available (which is almost always), partial fixes are golden.
