Is this a BIG problem?

Is it a BIG problem that my attention span is about 5 minutes long?

and what does that mean about me?

As I have trouble paying attention in all my classes

(thank god I am a natural at Japanese and English)

And my teachers are starting to yell at me heaps because of it and I really don't like it :'(

What can I do about all of this?

I mean I don't want to be moved down maths classes again.....

And I dont want to be yelled at for something that I cant help

ummm... Will yes, yes it is a BIG problem maybe you are A.D.D aswell

It's a problem, but not a big one.
You probably hate school (like EVERYBODY!), so you get bored
It happens quite often to me, but i pretend to be ok and my teachers cannot understand whether i'm "there" or not

There's always suicide. But alternatively, you *could* just find help with this. It's there, you know, for you and the likes of you.

I have the very same problem..
But the teachers does´nt say anything in the classes, they wait until the parents/teachers/you conversation

Thanks Lester!!

If you are -1, then a five minute attention span is acceptable. Carry on.

A five minute attention span for a 12, almost 13 year old should be a concern for his teachers and his parents to discuss and mention to his general practitioner. Strategies can be given to help him stay on task or medication could be an option. His academic and social success will suffer if this isn't addressed.

Alternatively, a month without computer games and TV works miracles in some cases...

Stabby Rip Stab Stab,

I'm sorry, I tried cutting my wrists, got put into councilling,
got out of councilling,
tried cutting my wrists again and the same thing happened then cut my wrists again and then I ended up in hospital,
I think I have learned my lesson now...
