Suggest Treatment For Poor Concentration When Diagnosed With OCD And ADHD

I have been having an incredibly difficult time keeping my focus while trying to complete the multitude of tasks I have engaged myself in. I am trying a new path in which I can be my own boss, but still bring home the bacon. What I did not realize was that there is an incredible amount of prep work, if you may, required before one can even begin the real work. Being a perfectionist about everything doesn t exactly help either. With the mountain of tasks seemingly ever-growing, I am almost to the point of overwhelment. I refuse to accept defeat and return to being a slave to someone else enterprise, so I am hoping there is some pharmaceutical answer to my quandary. Any suggestions for treatment to what I have self diagnosed as severe OCD and ADHD?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi there, I would be happy to help you with your concern. Being ambitious might sometimes shove you off track. its a normal phenomenon. I choose not to believe in your self diagnosis, unless you have consulted any physician regarding this issue prior. I would suggest you to approach your 'multitude of tasks' step by step, focussing on each step as you go by. But if you do have some symptoms as to consistent mood swings, racing thoughts, any kind of obsessions, has a record of poor academic marks; i would suggest you to directly post your concern to a specialist.
