Hope you are not: taking the Paxil (paroxetine) at night. (it's an activating antidepressant and should be taken in the morning) You were not on this medication the last time you posted. You need to tell your doctor you are having problems with memory, insomnia and attention. Consider seeing a specialist www.healthtap.com/drericweisman

Unlikely: One of the primary causes of poor concentration and memory are poor restorative sleep. I am always skeptical of anyone wanting to embrace the ADHD label if they have not had it since childhood. I would find a sleep study center and have a study done. You may have one of many treatable forms of sleep apnea or another issue they can help you manage.
