Hello doctor,
I have always been naturally motivated to study, and I used to be able to concentrate and focus on my studies exceptionally well. Last year, I joined college, and the schedule was very hectic. Classes were from 6 AM to 6 PM, and then I used to study till midnight. This was my schedule. But in the last three months, I have no motivation to study and even if I sit to study, I am not able to concentrate for even 30 minutes. I used to study for three to four hours at a stretch just four months ago. My exams are nearing, and I need to get a move on. Kindly guide me. I also need to mention that I took Modalert 100 mg with breakfast this morning, but I am not been able to see the results.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Is there any precipitating cause for such problem like loss of money, relationship problem, family issue. Have you started Modalert before your concentration problem have arisen? It is an activator type of drug but create an anxious feeling and can decrease concentration. What about your current pattern of sleep? So the management plan, I suggest remove any causative problem if present. If your problem is without any cause, then it might be performance anxiety. It may need treatment for the short term. Yoga, moderate exercise, meditation can help you and psychotherapy. Thank you.
