Would you mind sharing some of these strategies? I too have problems with focusing while studying, listening to lectures, etc.
I'm extremely disorganized -- I tell people that I can't catagorize things b/c I have a problem seeing the 'logical' connections between them that some others might see. I'm getting better, especially since getting out of college, but still usually end up with a 'miscellaneous' file/pile if I try to organize anything.
Now I'm attempting to go back to school, but it's proving more challenging that I anticipated. Haven't really discussed any of this with my pdoc, as I have been so focused lately on getting out of my depression.

I'm hardly unique.Is this not the MOST frustrating thing to you? It's like knowing you have this potential inside of you, but never being able to fully unleash it. I understand completely.
Thanks!
