I can’t read books because of my concentration problems…restlessness too is a factor.

My concentration is terrible.

I have to sit at a desk for 7 hours a day, which is torture when you’re restless and have a hard time focusing. I have to make myself do the work, pulling myself through each task by the skin of my teeth. No matter how determined I am though, I can never fully focus and I make a ton of mistakes.

I come home exhausted everyday.

I tried Adderall. It doesn’t help or work the same way it did before my psychotic break.

10 years ago it was a big issue for me. I was studying a degree and I had to leave it.
Little by little I was recovering some capacities.
And I finished my degree and after a master with a lot of effort and persistence.
I know I will never be the same I used to be in my young years. You feel really good when you reach the aims you planed before falling sick though.
Meditation is OK to avoid stress, but not improve focus. You have to train your mind and be mentally productive everyday. Start from zero and work hard. Be patient. And keep a healthy lifestyle.
