Answers:
It's definatly not ADHD, if you had ADHD there would be no way you would be able to concetrate for 40 minutes before losing focus!. Most ADHD sufferers would struggle to concentrate for 4 minutes before needing to run around!. Also it would be unlikely you would be able to enjoy activities like watching TV, as you would struggle to stay still for any length of time and and concentrate on even thing you enjoy like TV and video games!.

It is very normal to need to take a break from studies every 30 to 40 minutes and a good idea!. It will probably improve your learning ability!. If you just study for hours in a row you won't retain as much!.

If this seems like it would apply to you, the best place to start is with parents (if under age) and then a physician or mental health provider, maybe someone at your school!.
