See you take : Fluoxetine, Ativan ; Buspar (buspirone) but don't know what condition (s) is being treated. Inattention can be related to many problems (depression, anxiety, substance use) in addition to attention deficit disorder. Encourage a comprehensive psychiatric assessment ; possibly pyschological testing to determine cause of your inattention. Take care.

ADD symptoms: The symptoms you are having are symptoms of add, but also other conditions could cause these. If you have had these symptoms since you were in grade school, then add might be the cause. Schedule an appointment with you doctor to discuss it.
