Hey Reddit,

Sorry if I am posting this in the wrong section, but I have a medical/psychology question. I am a 21 year old who is unable to concentrate on anything. From what I noticed, my lack of concentration comes from an inability to not rush. 

A little backstory. I had an older brother with Dyslexia and another older brother with severe learning disability, although I do not know what in particular. When I was a kid, I could pick up things with relative ease. I hated reading(I have only read three books through and through), but I usually followed my gut and, for the most part, got through it. History was by far the easiest, I assume because I could just remember the lectures. Math and English were drags but I always placed mid 70's, which was good enough for me at the time. 

I never really had an issue until I began working a steady job, which called for me to take the occasional phone number from time to time. I would mix up numbers 90% of the time. I never really thought much of it, as I sucked with numbers. Then I wanted to learn more about my trade, design/web development, and realized I can not retain anything. I have read the same chapter about an HTML5 Document several times, but can't remember a damn thing.

I am not really looking for a diagnoses or validation, I am more looking for anything to help me. White noise worked one day a few months back, however all other attempt have been futile. Any one have any advice?
