Just a question, I have very bad concentration and memory like many others. But sometimes I read story about people and they write very good and fluence. I always need to take so much time to write something, my concentration is so bad. Could it be that dpdr (for some people) can be caused by a lack of concetration, focus. Like people with low iq who take meds to concentrate, maybe I need to try some of those. Could ritalin work? I dont know im just thinking about every possible sollution for dp. Im so tired of not living.

Your post is kind of all over the place, it's hard to know exactly what you are asking here. Your Bain question: "can lack of concentration be a cause of DP?" Is a little odd, as it's definitely a symptom of DP, as well as many other conditions, but I've never heard of it as a cause of anything (except car accidents, perhaps).

Many if not most people here have a similar problem. Sure, my posts may look clean and well-written and fluent, but you have no idea how long it takes me to write them, and how many times I have to use a backspace button, even for entire paragraphs because my thoughts just go off the rails.

In my experience, taking CNS stimulants (ADDerall in particular) can be beneficial for lack of focus sometimes, though it may make you hyperfocused. This was just fine for me, as it helped me get through my coursework. But I never considered it a long-term solution for anything, it can have really nasty side-effects, and it doesn't really do much for emotional disconnect and other symptoms of DP / DR.

Have you tried using essential oils to improve concentration? Since ancient times, Rosemary essential oil has been considered the best stimulant of memory and mental activity due to its strong tonic effect. It is enough to take a couple of breaths of this fragrance from the bottle, as you will feel that your head has cleared. Aromatherapists call him "the best friend of a middle-aged manager" for his ability to improve analytical abilities, direct thinking in a rational direction, and for helping in the fight against chronic fatigue syndrome. Please read about it on jordibhealthandfitness.com.

There are a lot of things that people have believed since ancient times in every culture and that are known to be false. Ancient times are a poor source of information in general.

you can make this claim, exactly the same quote, with switching the word „ancient“ in „modern“.

every day people are desteoying their brain and nervous system with psych meds and 500 years later there will come another guy who will say that psych meds are bad and that people like trith believed 500 years ago that they were helpful
