I have ADHD and am a junior in high school. I do have an IEP (for ADHD, dyslexia, anxiety disorder) but attention and focus are still an issue in school and a major issue outside for homework. I'll start super determined to finish, and I'll realize five minutes later I am already doing something else, even if I am generally interested. But, if I'm really interested in something, I get hyper-focused, and forget about the world around me (this doesn't happen often). Anyone have any tips for remaining focused for periods of time longer than 5 minutes?
Also, anyone know any tips to stop fidgeting? I am always in trouble for tapping my feet, playing with pencil, cracking knuckles ect.
Thank-you all
