I have lifelong trouble focusing and organizing , I get hyperfocused on some things but avoid other tasks, I sometimes speak out loud involuntarily, my mood shifts quickly depending on situations, I feel restless, sleep around 6 hours or wake sometimes, and my BMI is 15.

        Protein is good but you need mass gainer. 30g protein, add in 60g carbohydrate like maltodextrin or find a mass gainer supplement with some vitamins and stuff. It’s not “good for you” and it’s not whole foods, but you are way underweight and liquid food can help.

        We’re not talking about a deficit that can be made up with a couple 150 calorie protein shakes, you need 1000+ calories.

        And no, low BMI isn’t a definitive symptom of ADHD.
