Hi my name is Kala, and I'm 22. My problem is that, I think i have ADD. I cant focus on one thing, and i get distracted very often. When I'm doing my school homework, i tend to do so many things at once, and, I don't get anything done. Please help and explain more about attention deficit disorder (ADD) and, what are my options?

Hi Kala. I think you are over concern about your concentration.In my view person with ADD is not aware about that he or she is suffering from ADD.Lack of concentration can be a part of depression or some anxiety disorder.Since how much time are you suffering from this?Is there any physical or psychological features?In add there is complaint by other i.e. your family members,teachers?Are you suffering from any academic or occupational drawbacks because of this? Consult any psychiatrist for your detail evaluation or you can ask me if other query.
