Definitely relevant but likely more a by product of your unhappiness. If you're being tasked to do things that aren't interesting you'll have every incentive to not pay attention.

As some one with severe ADHD I strongly recommend a high fat + high protein breakfast and limit the caffeine. For high fat I usually take fish oil. For high protein I usually eat eggs with cheese and grain bread. Also, no coffee after 11AM as it has a pretty long half life.

Get into a good sleep schedule, also. Sleep more then you need. Try to wake up at the same time every day.

Last bit: ADHD isn't a curse, it can be a blessing - you just need to manifest it right.
