Trouble Concentrating/ADHD

[theplayingmantis]

i've always been a fidget and have ADHD or low attention span or whatever (before everyone jumped on that band wagon and got diagnosed), but in recent weeks i've found it a struggle to do just one thing, like watching a tv show/film and having to look at my phone at same time (i'm not someone whos constantly on their phone typically) looking at transfer rumor's or cricket forums, or posting crap on here...i've even found myself looing at PH at weekends which i have never ever done before.

I seem to be needing to do 2 things at once, when doing nothing, if that makes sense, and its annoying and the family have picked up on it.

i have always been a bit like this, but last couple of weeks seems to have been worse. i have been on hol in that time and was fine there, and it has no impact on work, or exercising, its just when i'm doing 'nothing'.

any suggestions to help me folks apart from some ritalin?

Sounds more like you're brains been fried from social media and short form video content along with another few billion people more than ADHD in my (non-expert) opinion.

Sounds like you need a dopamine reset. Limited screen time (apart from work if that's what you use) and little to no social media. Books instead. Try it for 7-10 days and see if it makes a difference.

Medication won't help unless you've got a confirmed diagnosis.
