Not sure if this is the right forum to post this in, but..

I'm 20 years old and for as long as I can remember, I've had a bit of a problem with my attention span. I'll say it started somewhere around highschool, my grades started to slip and they kinda stayed on the fast track to mediocrity. Now, though, I'm an art student majoring in animation and I'm pretty happy with where my life is- I've got a good girl, my friends are awesome, and I'm developing my skills nicely.

However, it wasn't untill I started experimenting with drugs that I realized how awfull my 'attention span' is. It's been a reoccuring problem for me to try to sit down and get something done- it's like no matter how much I want to do it, when it comes down to doing it my attention seems to just float away. Motivation runs dry after I start to get something done and I usually end up leaving things half finished (if even that) and sometimes I just forget what I was doing all together.

I've noticed though, that when I sit down to do something after taking a few hits, I have the patience and focus to sit down and work on whatever it is I intend to work on. I don't really know how I would have gotten past my finals last quarter if it hadn't been for the crip keeping me from tearing my computer apart.

Am I the only one that seems to focus better when I'm high? Does anyone else seem to experiance something like this? I've been thinking about visiting with a shrink about it, as maybe I do have some kind of legitimate attention disorder. I want to deal with it now, because I need to knuckle down and get things done on time.

Any feedback would be appreciated. I've been clean for about two weeks now, and quite frankly, I haven't been able to get myself to finish a damn thing.
