Helli,
This looks like hyperactivity disorder- ADD or ADHD. More details are needed even from your childhood and current activity level to diagnose correctly.
This is very treatable condition so, please dont be disheartened. Drugs like - methylphenidate or atomoxietine are very effective in reducing the ongoing rapidity in brain & help in improving concentration. So, please see your doctor and start the.medicine.
I hope the reply is useful for you.
