I have issues with focusing and prioritizing work.
What helped me is getting a work with absolutely floating work time. For example today I went to work office at 19:30 and I'm going to leave it at 7:00 or something like that. It doesn't matter. What matters is: I work prolonged hours (because I still procrastinate, but I've found out that I start to focus on work after 4-5 hours or something like that. And I can sleep as much as I need, without any alarm clock or calls. I usually sleep 8-9 hours, my whole day is something like 25-27 hours, so it's slowly rotating.
With these weird conditions I'm starting to unleashing my potential and it makes me feel so much better than before. When I'll get to work "late" to 11:00 in a sleepy state, will procrastinate until 18:30, when office is closed I'm going home without completing good work, then work overtime to finish sprint, getting burned out and this cycle repeats again.
I don't think that my current life style is sustainable and I plan to adjust it to a "normal" style slowly, but it's important to feel that I don't just slack at work and I actually do enough work to warrant my salary. This makes my soul happy and then I can move on with other things. Because when I feel uneasy, I can't really proceed with anything.
I don't trust psychiatrists, but it's just me. I prefer to find issues and ways to solve those issues. I tried to visit psychologist, but I felt that it's absolute loss of time and money.
It sounds like you might have a sleep problem instead of a focus problem. Without good sleep, you can’t focus.
One thing to try is melatonin (0.3 to 0.5 mg). Take it around 8:30 PM, then stay up past the point it makes you drowsy (it will kick in in about 30 minutes after taking). Got to bed at a normal time like 11:00 PM. You’ll probably wake up around 7:00 and be wide awake, and have much better focus during the day.
Doing this will help you align to the rest of the world’s schedule, which like it or not, is really when most people are expected to be working and available, and will also help to align your social schedule with others.
Fwiw, I believe there is a significant correlation between ADHD and sleep disorders (at least, that's what my psychiatrist told me when discussing my sleep problems during an ADHD checkup appointment recently - but I haven't researched this independently), so it's not necessarily one or the other.
Don't forget to take melatonin at precisely the same time. It's a hormone that controls your sleep/wake cycle and if you take it randomly, it'll fuck you up.
