Why Am I Unable To Concentrate On Study?

I feel as if i m mentally challenged . I m 13 in 7 grade and i m at a 3 grade level in school . I try so hard to learn and i love school and learning the problem is i cant , i sit there and mind makes me address everything in the room or world . I either just don t learn anything or i do and just forget it . Sometimes i forget what i m saying right in the middle of my sentence or i forget what i m doing . its getting worse and i feel that my brain is being blocked. Plus i don t have feelings like everyone else. This is just a example but with something as horrible as everyone makes this out to be rape , i just cant get any feeling out of it . And its not because i m to young because i m very grown up for my age .
