Hey, regardless of anything, it’s really nice to hear from someone going through the same things.
You should try talking to your parents about this, tell them how you struggle with focusing and maybe they’ll just give you the benefit of the doubt. I know that if I ever have a kid and if he/she asked me about anything like this, I would a least check to see if there was any truth to it, talk to their teachers and friends, watch them closer… after all there’s no harm in looking into it.
As for advice, you just have to try your best for now. I know that it can be frustrating, having the capability to do something well and somehow not to. The best thing you can do is commit to a schedule. I know it must be hard to follow through with plans, but it’s worth it. You probably won’t be able to do it everytime, and that’s okay, even just a little bit can spare you a lot of trouble in the future. Also, try figuring out what works for you. I know that just sitting on a table in a silent room doesn’t work for me, so whenever I need to study I put some music on, some silly show on Netflix, sit on the couch and I just do everything a lot faster since I don’t get bored, these distractions help, they make me stay “present”. You could try this too, but maybe something else works better for you, so try figuring out what that may be and stick to it.
And reading is a bit tricky, I started to read at night when I can’t sleep and since is the only thing I can do so late (other than stare at the ceiling), it usually works out, even if I can’t focus much.
Wish that I could’ve helped you more, I hope it all works out for you.
