I often make careless mistake. I have recently started noticing the trend. I find a few things clear I an disorganized. No matter how hard I try there are careless mistake in my work. People feel I am not listening cause I just get lost.
Could be other issues but I guess it is ADHD inattentive type because the trends are from years

Sir,
it is very thoughtful to bring this topic into light.
