If you don't mind sharing, what ADHD meds are you on? I do the same thing with strattera/atomoxetine. I wake up around 7a-8a, take it immediately, then go lay on the couch until it kicks in and I can start my day. I've noticed that my peak focus and performance time is from 1p-6p. Whatever I'm doing at 1p is what I'm going to focus on for the rest of the day, so I tailor my schedule to be involved in a priority at that time.
I don't mind at all. I'm on Methylphenidate 30mg XR at 8am (Medikinet adult in my country) and take a 10mg booster of the same med around 2pm. Usually that helps me focus until around 6-7pm and then that's it for the day.
