Nicotine, like caffeine, is somewhat of a self-medication for my ADHD

You might consider meditation as well. A good introduction to its practical benefits are in the book Full Catastrophe Living by Jon Kabat-Zinn. Adoption of this practice is, perhaps, the best self-help I’ve done.

Thanks for the recommendation, getting back into meditation is definitely on my agenda for 2024 and finding books without esoteric BS is hard 👍🏻

  You might want to consider the following no BS meditation books:
  
  The Mind Illuminated (for a rather hardcore howto on concentration, with 10 progressive levels)
  
  The Path to Nibbana (for Metta Meditation - potentially something you should do at some stage anyway, but this book might benefit from concentration techniques shown in TMI)
  
  Seeing That Frees (for later; this is not really a beginner’s guide to meditation, but it’s worth reading anyway)
