<p>What do i do? I am in developmental classes as i dropped out of school. I really dont put enough time into studying. Anyone have any adivice? I try to study but i need medication to help me focus.</p>
<p>Uh, take the medication to focus. Then study.</p>
<p>Problem solved.</p>
<p>I am taking the medication, it helps but i am always distracted.</p>
<p>Force yourself to study. If you keep on doing that, then your attention span will slowly increase. It’s like lifting weights.</p>
<p>Take your med.
Clear off your desk of clutter.
Position your desk so it faces a wall.
Turn off TV, computer, cell phone, music, whatever can distract you either visually or through sounds
Just you, your book, notes-study for 30 min
Do it again, lengthening the times until it is effortless to sit and complete a task.
The trick is training yourself to focus and to get work done.
Rinse, lather, repeat.
Good Luck.</p>
<p>Do you have the iPhone or iPod touch? If so, there are a lot of apps that work on increasing applications. I have one, (I can’t remember what it’s called, I’ll edit and get the name for you after I find my phone) that plays some sort of sound that is supposed to improve memory and concentration. And you just listen it to it for 15+ minutes a day.</p>
<p>I don’t know whether it actually works or if it’s the power of suggestion, but I’ve found that it has definitely helped.</p>
<p>Turn off electronics. Unless, of course, you have to type something …</p>
<p>Are you talking about IQ Boost</p>
