Quit job, dealing with the fallout

Hey /adv/ I need a little bit of advice dealing with a delicate situation

So I started working in a factory for Jabil two days ago, the people who work there are super friendly, but the itself work is horrid. Have to stand like 11 hours, they tell you off if you dare sitting down etc. Well, today around midday a technician dude came to talk to us newbies about how these machines work, I was super tired, my feet hurt like hell since I was standing since 6am continously, woke up at 3am to get to the bus - anyway, he gave us a paper about how to handle machines, and as he was talking I zoned out, started wondering and asked myself: what the hell am I doing?
I subtly put the paper I had in my hands on one of the machines and just...bailed out without saying anything to anyone. I went straight to HR, knocked on the door,and when somebody asked what do I want, I smiled wide and told them gleefully that I want to quit. Which I did. After two days. Okay, one and a half days.

The thing is, I kinda have a history of..not finishing things. It's my unmedicated ADHD probably. Schools and now work. My first job even. My mother is on the warpath, and I'm sure she'll tear me a new one as soon as she gets home.
That or she'll throw me out. I mean, that's a little excessive. If I finish college I can still be a functioning member of society. I just have to write my thesis. And I'm quite willing to look for another job in the meanwhile.
I need to go into full damage control, but how? I'd start rationalizing with her,but that rarely gets us anywhere. I'd start bawling but I lost my ability to cry on cue when I was 10.
Help me /adv/ pls
