VERY difficult time concentrating (serious)
I have been having some serious issues concentrating. I find myself zoning out sooo damn much. It's annoying. Today I took the GRE, scored a ****ing 960 (horrible!!!). I just could not focus enough to get through it! I don't know why I've been having these issues lately, but it's getting old. I'm not stupid or anything...i have a 4.0 GPA, but I am having a lot of trouble focusing recently....Are any of you like this? What can i do to get to normal without drugs?

My sleep is usually for a solid 7-9 hours. I am not cutting out carbs... It just really bothers me that I did so poorly on this standardized test. I mean WTF? I was doing decent on the practice ones, and then i just bombed it. Ef standardized tests!

This is the worst effing advice I have ever heard in these forums, and believe me I have heard of some incredibly bad ones in my stay here.
Low carb diets tend to make people foggy and a bit slow, but it doesn't cause them to zone out. Also brain fog only occurs for the first couple of weeks while low carbing.
Secondly, Kava Kava helps with relaxation which does very little for concentration. If anything this guy needs a stimulant.
Thirdly, fapping more often than not causes you to think more and more of women during your spare time thus causing people to zone out more often. Again, not good for concentration.
BEST ADVICE I can give the OP of this thread is to sleep well(9-12 hours), eat well(lean meats, good fats, good carbs, stay away from processed and junk foods), exercise(lift weights, do cardio). And for the love of Moses, don't fap for a month, trust me, you will have more focus, concentration and energy if you keep it to a minimum. If you want to have sex, go ahead, keep fapping to a minimum.
Study before hand, but don't worry too much. Stress/anxiety can kill your test scores if you let them.
Also, see a credible professional who can help you out. Don't go for drugs automatically, those will just make you dependent on them(ritalin, adderall, etc.)

You are a pussy.
Oh sorry did I insult you? Gosh you know that building you work in? Ya, the dudes that built that do construction 8+ hours a day.
And you sit on your butt. Bitching about not having enough energy to work out?
Please. Grow the **** up, be a man, eat more and stop whining.
Amazing enough.. some of us actually work, playin sports AND lift. Goodness, can you imagine that!
On top of that, we have to go home and screw out GF's/Wives. Sheesh! The effort!

I think it may just be depression messing with me...I mean, I've always found myself not paying attention, but who doesn't...I think it may be just b/c I'm missing my gf (she's been gone for the summer, and i've only seen her 3 times...yeahyeah i know, im a twat), and i just think about her a lot...also, i've just got a lot of ****...ill try and work it out, study some more, exercise more, eat better, and get my **** together....my gf will be back next week

I get it sometimes were i just can't focus or conentrate. I mean i was having a driving lesson a while back. I was almost doing my test so i was test standard. But i just couldn't focus in that lesson and was doing all sorts of crazy mistakes like i had never even drove before.
Pretty freaky.. hope it doesn't happen again. I just wasn't in grip with reality that day. Swear i was literally high off air or something.

Get back in the swing of things mentally by reading something you are sure to enjoy.
It will put your brain back on its feet.

That kava **** is amazing, if you can get it where you live try that, I can't where I live because it's ****in illegal
Edit: just read the thread, it helped me personally because I couldnt focus because I couldnt chill out, maybe doesnt help everyone.
