It's not stopping you. It just makes certain things difficult.
I've been dealing with ADHD my whole life. I've tried the drug route and rejected it. Maybe you will find the benefits outwiegh the downsides, but at your level of competency I doubt it. There are serious side effects to ADHD oriented medication, and it is pricey. You'll have to give up a large amount of control over your condition to the medication. It has a suprisingly large psychological impact on your life, taking medication to be "normal", and knowing that in order to do so you need to keep taking them the rest of your life. Expect mood swings, bad breath, insomnia and drowsiness, unusual changes in libido, etc, and so on.
Changing your diet will not "work better than any medicine". Taking in a large amount of omega-3,6,9 fatty acids will help, as will taking magnesium (but make sure you take calcium with it too) but they do not even come close to matching the effect of a 100mg tablet of ritalin.
