If you're aware of how adhd works then you of all people should know that "throw your phone in the toilet" is shite advice that only someone who doesn't know how adhd works would give. If you have adhd then you should know better than that.

Well my doctor advised me to limit intense distractions to allow me to focus on my wellness and accomplish tasks. I never said throw the phone away.

It took a lot of work to limit and change my habits, and help from my wife to help me block out stimuli and keep it away.
