What Causes Lack Of Concentration And Motivation?
Hey so I m a 22 year old college senior whom has found it hard to stay focused and study. I get distracted all the time and cannot focus on work whatsoever. I have taken one of my roomates adderall a few times and it has helped me tremendously. I am able to properly focus on my school work and am motivated to do so. How should I go about getting a prescription to something that really helps me? Thanks. -Kyle

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
You would need to be assessed yourself to what conditions may be present that may require medication.
A psychological assessment would be needed.
After this is completed the appropriate medication can be prescribed.
Problems related to attention deficit are common and you should experience improvement once medication is started.
Your doctor would be able to refer you to someone who may be able to help.
I hope this helps
