Why Can’t I consentrate?

I really need some help.Whenever I try and do homework,study or read I just simply can’t concentrate.My mind just goes somewhere else making it very hard to do the work correctly,fully concentrate or actually read the book.This year I want to do well in school because next year is 9th grade and I want to have a good schedule and good mind next year for school.I really need help figuring out how I’m supposed to concentrate without my mind drifting somewhere else….can anyone help me?

ps–its not just homework and things like that.reading playing videos games,watching tv,listening during a sermon in church.I simple can’t concentrate…WHY?????

our brain hv t parts – left and right both r equal. when we dont concentrate it means one part is controlling the other. so u hv to train the other side to up itself to gain control. its slow, needs lots of patience and training n u can do it. willpower, less distraction wld help. must read more so tt u hv more knowledge and ideas tt will stop your mind wandering. goodluck take care

I know that many people will say that you have A.D.D. … I have good reason to believe that this is not the case and A.D.D. is just a made up disease (at least for most people)http://newideas.net/adhd/diagnosis. Still…. not being able to concentrate is a problem which can be helped by a number of things. Strenuous exercise for 20 minutes a day (preferably in the morning) can calm you enough yo focus, and focusing on your diet is extremely important… do you eat lots of sugar or soda? these effect your state of mind more than you know. Soft, quiet music (no Lyrics) will help focus the analytical side of the brain and that should help to. Above all, whatever style of treatment you adopt, remember that you have to train your brain so that it will learn to focus… and that takes time, so start slowly at first, make a schedule and stick to it, and good luck.You should also read this… http://www.gnhealth.com/Documents/Arthritis/Review_Of_The_Hyperactive_Child.htm
