I am having a really hard time with this lately. I often feel what I think is probably anxiety. Whatever it is, it just isn't a good feeling, and I don't know what to do about it. And I feel slightly overwhelmed and confused as well. It's getting me pretty frustrated, because I don't even know what is causing me to feel like this. I just come home from wherever I was, go straight to my room as usual, and I usually have an idea of what I want to do (get on WP, read, research my interests etc.) but then I just can't. I can't focus on anything, honestly I can barely think, and it only gets worse because I start to get annoyed about it and I want to know what is wrong with me, but that only makes it worse because there is no explanation. What would be causing me to feel like this?

I have that problem sometimes. I've been diagnosed ADHD. It gets really bad if I haven't had enough sleep

I've been diagnosed as ADHD inattentive type. I can't take medication for it though, it only works sometimes, and then when it wears off I feel like 10 times worse :(

When I had the worst of my anxiety, focus, and executive functioning problems I was able to improve everything dramatically by detoxing my body of excess salicylate acids. I stopped consuming them, drank plenty of water, and put epsom salt lotion on my skin every day and night - especially the bottoms of the feet as it absorbs best there. The body requires magnesium & sulphur in order to detox acids out via urination.

Oh, and ADHD meds (stimulants) leach magnesium and sulphur out of the body, compounding this whole problem of salicylate acid sensitivity.

When I first cut them out & started using the epsom salt lotion I noticed significant results in about 5 days, then bit by bit I continued to improve over the months that followed.
