Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.

I understand that you are worried about your difficulty in concentrating on your studies. Now, this problem can be due to a variety of reasons like stress, excessive workload, anxiety, depression and sometimes, learning disabilities.

Since this problem seems to be causing you significant distress, I would advise you to seek professional help. Please speak to your parents or your school counsellor, so that they can arrange for a consultation with a psychologist or a psychiatrist.

Wish you all the best.

Regards,
Dr. Jonas Sundarakumar
