I have begun to wonder if I have some sort of actual clinical problem with attention. It kind of goes beyond procrastination for me--when I sit down to do work, I simply cannot focus unless I'm so pressed for time that, if I don't do it now, I will not be able to hand in the assignment on time. I've been this way since I was a kid. I get decent grades but I wonder how much better they would be if I could actually be one of those people who could sit down to study for two hours and actually study. I get distracted by everything. I've even put website blocks on my computer in order to get myself to focus, but I'll find something else to distract me.

I've spent the last 4 hours distracted. I have a pile of work, all due tomorrow, and I cannot seem to settle myself to get into it. This is the story of my freaking life.

Not really a big, pressing, depressing problem today. But I'm frustrated.
