I used to concentrate much better when reading. The last few years my concentration has been worse and I skin pick (dermatillomania) a lot. It's getting better with practice though, I'm working on recognizing the thought, letting it pass and then re-focusing. I've read 5 or 6 books this year which feels like the old me. I hope it improves for you as well.

Grounding techniques?
I can't focus on anything but my thoughts. I'm so inside my head, and my mom always tells me to focus on my body and my surroundings, but I can't, or maybe I just don't know how. I try to, but it doesn't help. The thoughts are still there :(

Should I continue with this?
For a while now, I've been having trouble concentrating... especially when studying... so I'd play the sound of rain or a forest or something similar to distract myself, and when I'd finish and turn it off... a pile of thoughts would come back to me as if they'd piled up on me!!! Anxiety, rituals... what should I do?
simba.
