I can watch a movie, enjoy it but I can't remember what it was about after seeing it. Same with reading a book my mind keeps wandering. Can anyone advise on a method or methods to relax me & keep my mind on the subject? Most grateful for any replies.

    Are you doing anything else while you watch the movie?

    Use a dumb phone and do at least 1 hour of heavy exercise (weight lifting, running and/or similarly vigorous activity) each day. As someone with (combined-type) ADHD, it's the only thing I find that brings me some level of cognitive normalcy, given every medication I've tried tends to have really undesirable side effects (insomnia, nausea, complete lack of appetite, or variation thereof).
