I don’t know if this was the right way to phrase my question.

I have this problem where I space out every now and then, I just can’t shake it off and start doing the things I should be doing.

For example - If I’m in a room with a bunch of people who I should be talking to, I will most likely speak a few times and then I’d space out and look like Kanye’s Blank Stare meme.

    You might have ADHD. My medication helps stop some of the internal chaos and lets me be more outwardly focused.

    One thing I do is clean my room or the kitchen. It’s easy, methodical, gives a boost to my mood when I see my good work, and primes my brain to focus on a harder task.

      I definitely relate to OP’s situation, and I’m pretty certain I have ADHD. I never really considered that medication might help with this sort of thing.
