I waited 7 months for my first appointment for screening, then another month for an in person assessment that took 3 hours. It's been almost 2 months since then and no response except for the $1000 bill. I'm about to call a lawyer (if I can ever get around to it...)

Yes thank you! Edited my comment to correct it.
This sort of thing is already being done with many commercial devices. See www.powercastco.com for one of the companies.
This was such a fun game! I still have my copy on Sega CD!
Yes, and honestly that's how I coped for a long time. It leads to stress and burnout and major crashing. Not a good long term solution.
Look up classic ADHD coping mechanisms. Others have mentioned some in this thread like studying with someone (body doubling) or enforcing a schedule. One big reason procrastination works is that the stress/adrenaline acts like a stimulant that is one of the normal medications for ADHD that helps you focus.
One other suggestion is to study when well rested (first or second thing in the morning). ADHD symptoms can be exacerbated by being tired.
It surprises me that Nintendo would think enough people would pay for this, but considering the tech in it, I doubt it could sell for cheaper at a profit. What people don't realize is that there is a full on radar based health monitoring system in there that drives the price up. I expect this is a test bed for a future product that someone is trying to make back the R&D money.
