Same situation as you, I would recommend at least trying medication again if you can. They have new ones that work much better (at least for me) than before.
Plus, the nice thing about ADHD meds is that you can take them in a "as needed" basis if you want, unlike antidepressants/other types of neurotransmitter medications. I take mine on days I have a heavy work/school load or when I need to be interacting with people for extended periods of time, and the days I don't I get by with my regular coffee/tea/whatever.
Yeah, the as-needed aspect is definitely really nice. I’ll definitely look into it once I get back into therapy
