Your difficulties with sustained attention are severe and strongly affect your ability to function day to day.

Your answers describe a very pronounced trait on sustained attention. This level of intensity indicates that the dimension holds a central place in how you currently function, probably with a notable impact on daily life (sleep, relationships, motivation, decision-making). The mechanisms typical of this level — a sense of being overwhelmed, a gradual loss of grip on the situation, withdrawal or isolation — can make it hard to step out of this dynamic on your own. It's important to remember that a very high score on a questionnaire is not a diagnosis and says nothing about your worth or your ability to feel better: it signals an intensity — that is, a need for support — not an inevitability. Many people who recognise themselves in this level find lasting relief once they are supported, because what feels insurmountable alone often becomes manageable with someone else. This is precisely the level at which support from a mental health professional (psychologist, psychiatrist, family doctor) is most useful: to set a framework, identify what keeps the dimension going, and build a strategy suited to you.

The ability to direct and maintain attention on relevant information while ignoring irrelevant stimuli.

Your answers describe a marked trait on selective attention. At this level, the dimension can sustain itself through self-reinforcing mechanisms (avoidance, narrowing of attention, or rumination), whose exact form depends on the dimension involved. This trait typically shows up across several everyday contexts, not only in exceptional situations. Understanding the self-reinforcing mechanism is often the key: for example, avoiding a situation brings short-term relief but confirms to the brain that it was dangerous, which strengthens avoidance the next time. Spotting this kind of loop in your own daily life — without judging yourself — is already a lever for change, because you can only act on what you have first identified. It can interact with other elevated dimensions of the profile — for instance by worsening the feeling of overload or limiting the resources available to cope with it. It may help to talk it over with a professional (psychologist, doctor) to explore in more detail what is at play and identify levers for action; structured approaches such as cognitive behavioural therapies work precisely on these chains, through small, concrete and realistic steps rather than willpower alone.

Your distractibility is very pronounced and constitutes a major obstacle to your daily functioning.

Your very high score describes very pronounced distractibility, which constitutes a major obstacle to daily functioning. Without judgement, distractibility is not a lack of willpower: in ADHD-type functioning, the attentional filter lets through more stimuli, so attention is captured by anything that comes up (a noise, a thought, a notification), at the expense of the task at hand. One way of reading this, to weigh against your own experience, is that the effort to 'concentrate harder' often fails and exhausts you, because the problem isn't the amount of effort but the way attention is managed. The very high nature of the score deserves to be taken seriously. The most effective lever is to act on the environment rather than on willpower alone: reduce sources of distraction (a clear space, notifications off, headphones), offload memory (lists, reminders), and break tasks into short sequences. If the impact is this marked, an assessment with an ADHD professional is clearly warranted — this test is a screening, not a diagnosis.

The ability to structure your activities, manage your affairs and keep an orderly living environment.

Your high score describes difficulties structuring your activities, managing your affairs and keeping an orderly living environment. Without judgement, these organisational difficulties are one of the most frequent and most disabling manifestations of ADHD-type functioning: they reflect neither laziness nor a lack of goodwill, but a weakness in the executive functions that plan and order action. One way of reading this, to weigh against your own experience, is that the gap between intention ('I'm going to get organised') and follow-through can generate a great deal of frustration and guilt, often unfair. The high nature of the score deserves attention. The lever is not to 'try harder' but to lean on external systems that compensate: diaries, lists, fixed routines, tidying by habit rather than by decision, breaking large tasks down. And if these difficulties weigh on you over time, talking to an ADHD professional makes it possible to consider tailored support.
