First of all , Thanks to all of you for replying to my message & your advice :) . Thank you so much

Second, I can't go for any diagnosis, I am a college student in my teens & live in India; my parents are typical South Asian conservative parents! They & my family members believe that introversion is a mental problem! & a normal human is naturally an extrovert.

They also believe that ADHD is just a reason for bahana to not get good marks in their studies & it only applies to the West. They stay study & get good marks & this problem will go away.
So I can't go for a diagnosis right now. Only after I leave college & get my first paycheck can I afford to pay & visit one :(

Third, my friends were discussing Percy Jackson(some fiction book in which the hero has ADHD), & I was in a parallel discussion with another friend about my problems in life. Then someone suddenly says--just like ADHD dude & everyody laughs.... after some time(1 week), I decide to do some research on ADHD in my spare time, & when I do.
I realise that some of those symptoms & problems do apply to me.(lack of concentration,fidgeting with my legs frequently even when I am tired,restlessness,procrastination,zoning out during conversations etc).

I am spending some time on quora & other forums & finding out if I do have ADHD or some other related disorder with similar symptoms. & how I can tackle it, I am doing meditation which has helped improved my concentration.
I also want to know what it is like having ADHD & other such disorders & see if it resembles what I feel

& yes , this is hurting my studies! I feel i can do much much better than I am doing right now if I knew how to tackle my problems.

@Shamain Yes i was the one who asked the speaking to self question. Thanks for your advice, it's come down quite a bit. But it is still there

Hi,

First---you need to stop thinking that it is a problem----it actually is not----. It is an asset----you just need to learn how to use it and program yourself to its powers and weaknesses.

It is a similar issue that in right handers a left hander child is born----.

Stop looking around and searching for the magic bullet---because there are none----.

It is also upto you to admit that you are a " LEFT HANDER ".

Just learn to live your life " one day at a time "---today is the day----this is what I am going to accomplish today "----this is all you need to live a very successful life----you will find it to be a fascinating experience---.

Other than that---you can make your life a SOB STORY---" A DUKHI KAHANI "---so that you can keep telling others to have pity on you----.

Just think about it this way----how did TENDULKAR build up his centuries-----one at a time or how? How did he score his centuries---one run at a time and some times 2's and 4's and a rare 6 as well.

Just like the foundations of a building----one brick at a time---.

There is no cure for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), but treatment can help relieve the symptoms and make the condition much less of a problem in day-to-day life.ADHD can be treated using medication or therapy, but a combination of both is often the best way to treat it.Treatment will usually be arranged by a specialist, such as a paediatrician or psychiatrist, although your condition may be monitored by your GP. So instead of writing on an online forum visit a paediatrician or psychiatrist.
