I have a hard time concetrating and studying since I was young at school, along with that came other issues, by not being able to study properly, I developed anxiety and depression, I did get to cope barely all over these years, i'm an adult and though I have being able to cope as good as I could, I ended not really resolving these problems, and feel things really went bad this last year, and the tendency, it is just to continue getting worst. It is very hard for me to be present and to concetrate my mind on things and from all the other things I have control in my life, right now really feels that concetrating is the major issue of my life, and one that despite all my efforts I would need some help either of natural herbal treatments or of therapy. what would you recommend?
On a good note, the last week, I really have started taking some steps to try to have a better life, one that I could be the best of me...
For example, I usually can write on a stream of consciousness, and would be hard for me to go back and try to edit for example. thanks for all the upcoming help

I would recommend getting help for your depression and anxiety, not just the ADHD issues...even if you get help for the focus and concentration if the other issues aren't treated then they can make treatment for the ADHD not as effective

I have the same problems with you, i can never concentrate in many things. I feel so dizzy after i read 1 page of a book/article, i always skip many things when i read, i usually only read the first and last paragraph.
I only study 4 hours before exam, it's because i feel it useless to study everyday, i can never focus on what i read. Luckily i never have problem in school, i can get as many as A's i want.
But yeah it's so horrible to never able focus on anything, i like to write fiction stories but i rarely finish it. Duh..i don't want to take any meds nor go to a psychiatrist.

Thanks for the help Catatonia, have you being writting lately, make you can talk more about that, I plan to start writting a couple of projects that I have in mind. Maybe we could share with one another our goals on writting, and keep each other's track, so we can actually achieve it. how about it?
