I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. I can understand your difficulties and cannot classify it as a mental problem. This is just an attitudinal problem. Let me explain.
You should be able to watch an entertaining movie continuously for two hours. You could play an entertaining game for one hour. In these cases, there is no concentration problems. I think you lack interest in studies.
But, the second part in your description goes further to explain about some mental problems. I think you are exaggerating your symptoms. Please consult a psychologist and explain without presumptions. He should help you.
If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this URL. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques.
Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications. Good luck.
