Anyone got advise on how to begin training?
I got no money for gym because they hella expensive and I also got adhd but I can't eat the medicine without becoming anorexic or depressed so my energy is drained as soon as I get out from my house or just socializing like sounds, light and people takes my energy so damnedquickly 
I really like exercising but I never got the energy to actually exercise more then once a month for like 5min

Got to much school in my life
I am 100% a night owl and -100% a morning person 
I am a lazy person that enjoys exercising
My English are horrible

@Jojo Try jogging or going on a quick run, every day. Preferably early in the morning. I'd also suggest things like yoga. There are plenty of things you can do, for free.

First thing I’d do? Purge the guilt gut pleasures to the bin. Yes you can go the shop to buy more, but that requires getting off your a**. Put effort barriers between the habit traps. The more friction between gluttoning, the better to keep dieting goals. That said a small treat every once in a while, maybe once a week is okay - your not here to suffer, your there to break habits. If you’re not used to healthy eating google it for recipes - and don’t restrict amount the food your eating, - your burning energy and remodelling your body doing so can put you in a dangerous state.
Saying your goal out loud to people helps strengthen resolve as well as building a plan. Setting a timer on your phone multiple time a day for small excises might help keep a steady pattern, a checklist may also help. Set aside time in the day to do it.

I recommend going to the gym just once at the start- not for the machines but for the experts, some have fancy machines to check your health levels and they have a better idea of a healthy sustainable routine (7 day trial will get you through the door and the checkups are sometimes free) for your goals. Start small goals and build up.
There are plenty of excersises that can be done, even without tools.

Always stretch before you start
For muscles/anaerobic: 
(Better for muscles and bones)

A warning for muscles. Listen to your body. Don’t push if your injured, instead switch to an excerise that doesn’t effect that area. Don’t do just one exercise, just do a rotating set, say 10 squads then switch activity or you will injure yourself. Also muscles are heavy, if your gaining muscle you will gain weight before watching your weight sharply falling, as muscle burn energy just by existing.

Anaerobic is a bit better for loosing weight than aerobic as it burns stored fat 

but it is hard on beginners and taxing on the body. You need proper technique to prevent injury. If your thinking of doing anaerobic definitely get advice from a gym professional or doctor

List:

Burpees 

Sit-ups

Planks

Squats 

Push-ups 

Hold your arms up in a T shape and rotate your arms in small circles like your cleaning the wall sideways

Lay on the ground on your side and lift the leg facing the sky up and down

Glute bridges ( lay flat on the ground, squeeze your glutes and lift your hips up, creating a straight line from knees to shoulder hold briefly at the top, then lower with control)

Walking lunges

Jumping on the spot/ jump jacks
Aerobic excises: 
(Better for the heart, lungs and vascular system)

Going for walks (best to leave the house for hills and alternating slope)

Cycling (if you have a bike) 

Stairs

Swimming 

Marching on the spot and touching the elbows (from opposite arm to the leg) to the knee raised

Running laps around the house

Dancing 

Hiking
