You sound like a very caring GF.

First, unless you are a doctor, don't diagnose him. Have him talk with his MEDICAL Doctor about his issues of focus or problems in college... and seek help there (it could be a physical issue and not so much mental.)

You say he's poor but he's in college...
does he have a computer?... not judging just wondering because there are key studies that say playing games on computer, and indeed a lot of computer usage can create ADHD symptoms or make them much worse.

A poor diet nutritionally also will increase ADHD symptomology. If he is poor and not eating correctly then that's making his life even worse, and he may not even realize it.

You can help by urging him to see an MD, and by eating only healthy foods when you are with him (and maybe in life for yourself too )....

Good wishes.
