Likely ADHD instead of what I've been diagnosed with before.

There are two non-fictional books about adult ADHD Inattentive (paying attention, concentration, focus, and memory)(aka Hyperactivity)(1981, 1983) by C. Thomas Wild and how the right medicine can temporarily reduce some ADHD symptoms a little (not a cure).

I'd recommend that one too. Demigods with ADHD and dyslexia? Oh yeah..
