Keep getting distracted and day dreaming!

[Imsilly]

Ok,I've been having this problem for over 5years already.Whenever I study during classes or revising at home,I can't pay attention to what I'm doing and my mind will wonder somewhere else.I don't get distracted with things around me but my mind will just wonder.
For example,when my teacher teaches during class,half way I'm paying attention then suddenly my mind will be somewhere else.This also happens when I'm studying at home to.Can't study without my mind being somewhere else!
I study the most in comparison to most of my friends yet my results are the worst.I don't have any disorders and I don't take alcohol,drugs,caffeine and stuff like that.I'm 17 and I really want to stop getting distracted!
Sorry for making you read all of that but I'm desperate!

Yeah, I have the same problem. I just pretend I'm listening to the teacher and I look forward, and if we read something I also cant concentrate, like I "read" the words and flip pages but dont actually think about what im doing, I just do it..... My friends are almost all in advanced maths and they study way better and they get way higher grades then me, sometimes I feel really stupid. I do have an eating disorder but I dont really think that has anything to do with my distractions though.... Whenever I drink caffeine I do pay more attention though......

Yeah I guess it happens to everyone. I get A's but even I doodle sometimes during lectures and get distracted even at home. Something to do outside of school to get me to focus is just to get out of my house and study somewhere else. If I'm home, I guess the mindset just isn't always there to study.
