I can't concentrate
Hi. I am in middle school, and throughout the years people have always been describing me as smart and I do like to study. However lately I am finding it harder and harder to concentrate. Like, I only use the iPad to play music sometimes. But I mainly get distracted by a book, or my phone occasionally.
I know I can't keep on going on like this. Please, advice is appreciated.

Maybe give some free advice about: School?
Make a study schedule and stick to it each night. Spend X amount of time on homework, studying and try to fit in certain subjects for each night and at least 2-3 hours or until complete and balance it all out. Reward with book or music immediately afterward.
What you need to is move the distraction completely from the room you are doing studying in or homework. Give the IPAD to parents, the phone too or have it locked away until you are legitimately done each night.
You also need to know that the world is not going to end if you miss a text, e-mail or whatever on your phone or IPOD or cannot listen to music for awhile. It will be there for later and you'll find yourself able to study. Right now it's hurting everything.
There's no way even if sometimes that you can truly study and do well with those gadgets going off and music on for it takes your focus away easily.
As far as I can tell your inability to focus suddenly isn't medical or a learning issue unless you didn't disclose something inadvertently. Try ridding yourself of any distractions around you and see if you can study and work easier with focus on one not many things at once. I think that's the issue. Lock 'em up and see if any difference.
