I have an inability to focus on things, Help?!


Question: I have an inability to focus on things, Help!?
Well, the title pretty much says it all!. What I want to know, is am I just lazy or do I suffer from medical condition like ADHD or ADD!?

For a little background on my problem:

I'm in grade twelve!.
I've had an inability to focus on schoolwork for as long as I can remember like around 5th grade I noticed!.
I've never had impulse control in terms of blurting things out!. I do, however, have impulse control in terms of choosing between two activities such as finishing an essay that's due tommorow or going to my buddies house to chill!. Guess which one I always choose!.!.!.
It's eleven o'clock (pm) and I've got a 1000 English essay that's due tommorow morning!. I'm about a quarter done!.
I will do anything but work, such as writing on this site!.
I was a very good student, like B's mostly student for the first 2 years of school!. Now my marks start rapidly deteriorating!.
I play several sports!.
I have trouble concentrating at school or on menial tasks!.
In class I have a hard time paying attention unless its something that interests me!. But that doesn't happen a lot except in Physics( I HATE physics with a passion lol)Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Well, you arent lazy thats for sure! I dont think the symptoms you listed DONT contribute to ADHD, what I think it is, you have lost interest in school, like it has become boring unless your out with your mates or whatever, try to refocus and remember why you are at school still!? what are you striving for!? what do you want out of your future!? start focussing coz we all know we cant turn back time and fix our dumb decissions oh yeah we all hate physics too!.!.!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

damn dude it sounds like we have the same problem, but I havent seen anybody about it but ppl say that it sounds like ADD or ADHD!. I think the best thing to do is to see a psychologist about it bc they know for sure!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

That is how most people are!. If it's not interesting to you, then you know what college courses not to take!. It's not easy to focus on mind-numbingly boring subjects!. It's normal!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
