Repeated silly mistakes at work

[Parnate]

Well my adhd and depression makes me so unfocused and distracted.
I am in this job since last 9 months and still i am making silly mistakes. It is so unacceptable to myself.
For focus i tried atomoxetine, bupropion, venlafaxine, levomilnacipran and what not .
I also tried methyl phenidate. I am not sure if it helped with focus but my memory was shit on it .
And thanks to being born in my country there are no adderall or vyvanse available.
Wish i could focus normally.

It must be really tiring and frustrating being in that situation, it certainly is such a cruel world that we exist in where people have to suffer all through no fault of their own. But anyway, I hope that you find relief from what you are going through.

at 29 it got so bad that i couldn't even do the most basic tasks at my job, like counting several items in several rows, forgetting extremely important things, 3 weeks later i got fired, the next year i got diagnosed with ADHD and started Ritalin, it worked like magic, i started a new job and excelled at it

What job are we talking about here? For many fields it isn't uncommon that there is a learning curve of a year of more. Especially complex systems.

Either way you can look into modifinil, it will help you with your concentration problems.

Try a stress ball maybe? Kinda sounds dumb but it might help a little. Also maybe try researching into other methods of fidgeting that would help you stay focused, maybe even chewing gum. It must feel pretty tiring for you and I hope the best.

i overheard my colleague talking to others about me and criticising me. It is very painful.
