my adhd dilemma
Tuesday, August 12, 2008i think i have something like adhd. i find it difficult to concentrate on one thing for a long period of time. at work, i can’t do just one thing. when i do research, i get bored when i browse only for the research topic. i have to open a lot of tabs for my other surfing needs. after a certain period of time devoted to researching and surfing, i have this urge to do something else or something more, basta something different. and since there’s nothing else left for me to do, in front of the computer that is, i get really, really bored.
when i study, i can’t read assigned cases or readings for a long period of time. i would have to watch television o kaya every few minutes i would think of food.
my mind is all over the place. i want to always multi-task. i have to keep my mind preoccupied with a lot of stuff all the time otherwise i get bored and then eventually it leads to frustration. i think there are two possible explanations for my adhd dilemma:
explanation # 1: i just get bored easily period
explanation # 2: i am not in my area of interest. i can’t sustain my attention because i’m not that interested in the things that i’m involved in.
i don’t think it’s the first explanation so something can be done about this dilemma. i just have to find a way to get to that field that interests me. forces of nature, please, please, please send me an opportunity so i can get there.
