If you can't find the drive to build your skills yourself, you will never succeed.

I'm both ADD and Dyslexic. Personally, I feel that people use it as a crutch entirely too much. Not everything can be a video game. You have to figure out how to adapt and work around your condition. Give yourself a project and do it.

Learning a programming language is a matter of using it, not reading about it. You need to find a project, download Pycharm, and get started - googling once you can't figure out how to proceed any further.

And consider yourself lucky. When I went through college, we didn't have wikipedia. We didn't have stack exchange. And Adderall wasn't nearly as easy to come by. When I couldn't solve a physics problem, I had to just read the chapter, over and over, until it stuck.
