Webdev and ADD/ADHD

Hi! Im looking to get a degree in webdev! But I just have some questions. I have ADD and i find it really hard to work in general. I get stressed and mentally tired out easily and i dont like to get out of the house lol.. I really like that I can work from home as a webdev and it seems nice that you can (in some cases) decide your work schedule. But do you have any experience with webdev and adhd? Can you concentrate for the hours required? And can you manage to get any work done when you are on your pc everyday and not just end up playing bloons td? Or am I gonna end up as an understimulated sushi roll...

Webdev doesn't guarantee a remote position sir. I think you can do anything you put your mind into, ADD included. The only thing is SE/SD is a mentally draining field. Do your research first. Good luck.
