My son was ADHD, non motivated, didn’t want to go to school, too many video games, no direction. He was in his early 30’s with no good future. He finally got sick of seeing his friends making good money, etc etc - he found a job that paid him to train while he studied for the national board (pressure vessel/boiler inspector) took him a year.
He’s now 37, makes great money, has a company car, bought a home and is doing great. He’s not perfect but my point is - your 30’s is the time to get your head out of your ass. You have nothing to be worried about - if you can find something that pays you while you train (I’d check into CO2 or boiler inspectors) you have plenty of time to turn things around, but do it now. You CAN.

This is good advice, obviously don't listen to ppl on Reddit about whether you have ADHD or not (that includes me), but reading your entire post you seem to exhibit some symptoms of it. Get some professional opinion and see what they can do for you.
As many have said you have a great support system and you can still turn things around. If you believe you have an addiction don't try to do it alone. If you want to get out of the ditch, find something to do and STICK to it. You may not feel like it but you have developed A LOT of skills and experience even when you feel you haven't been able to hold a job for long, those will help you in life as long as you get out and do something.
Good luck man.
