Do you know what causes your inability to concentrate?
Having an eating disorder, I struggle with my concentration especially when my weight is down and I'm in starvation mode. I'm sure your reasons are your own, but here's some of my strategies:
-Divide tasks into parts. For example, when I do my dishes, I have to do cups, then go do something else, then small plates, take a break.... etc.
-Don't stop stimulating your brain. Read a book with short chapters... many self-help type books are actually written to accomodate a lack of concentration, and have very short sections you can read one at a time.
LOL!! Even now I'm losing concentration writing this message!! I just caught myself staring off into space.
-Evaluate how your medications affect your concentration. If you have meds that make concentration worse, see if you can time them with your doctor so that they are in a time of day you need to concentrate less.
-Some people find it helpful to have a "brainless" habit, like turning your ring or playing with a necklace, or fidgeting in some way. This keeps the brain stimulated while you focus on what it is that you are doing.
Well, hope those help. I understand your frustration.
hm...mostly in public with persons especially while learning or taking lessons.
I do find out the reasons that ensure that the others are better than me and they can do more things in a shorter period of time.
I don't know exactly....i can't concentrate on all my thougts all in one
Another thing i remembered now...many years ago i suffered from extreme sensitivity of computer namely computer games so that my eyes go red and burn.
But now i sometimes or manytimes have a headache and that makes me angry.
I'm very happy to post in this forum as i think in general are my thoughts would be meaningless and not worthy.
1. it might be anxiety-based, i.e., if being in public or around certain people makes you feel nervous or self-conscious or uncomfortable, that would interfere with concentration; or
2. it may have to do with what it is you're doing - for most people, it is more difficult to sustain concentration on something you find boring or less interesting.
Read a book with short chapters... many self-help type books are actually written to accomodate a lack of concentration, and have very short sections you can read one at a time.
I'll look in my library....
I'd try going to chapters or another big bookstore, and just browse around the self-help section (which in itself takes concentration!!).... You'll find something. It's so hard to recommend books without a thorough understanding of where someone is at. But I'll see what I can find.
