As someone living with ADD, working from home has been quite a challenge for me.
I realized that I need the commute and the different environment at the workplace in order to context switch so I can actually concentrate and get work done.
As it is right now I need to rely on medication to at least have the chance to be concentrated and productive. So in the long run I'd probably have to get a desk in a shared office space if I have to do more remote work.
