Lately, I’ve been feeling like my brain is all over the place—jumping from one thought to another, forgetting what I was doing mid-task, and getting completely overwhelmed by simple things. I don’t know if I’m just stressed, if I’ve always been like this and never noticed, or if there’s actually something going on. How do you even tell?

Focus issues can stem from so many things—lack of sleep, anxiety, even diet. It’s wild how much your brain depends on the right balance of rest, routine, and sometimes just cutting out distractions.
That sounds frustrating, and honestly, it’s hard to say without looking deeper. Everyone gets distracted sometimes, but when it starts interfering with daily life—like struggling to finish tasks, constantly zoning out, or feeling mentally exhausted from trying to stay on track—it might be worth exploring further. If you’ve noticed this pattern over a long period and not just during stressful times, it could be worth considering an evaluation. There’s actually an ADHD test for adults that can help screen for common symptoms and give you a clearer idea of whether what you’re experiencing aligns with ADHD. It won’t replace a professional diagnosis, but it’s a useful first step to understanding what’s going on.
