How can I treat something like this???

I think execution function disorder is tied in with ADD but it's not that. There were certain skills I never developed as a child, and had a awful time with school as a result.
There's usually impairment in executive functions for people that have ADD. Have you researched the typical signs of ADD and does it match up with what you are experiencing?

Like inattentiveness, difficulty in concentrating on or task at a time, organizing, following directions, working memory. This will affect how you learn and execute your working memory.

What you are dealing with could be ADD or something else or a combination.

Nowadays, ADD is just called ADHD and it's divided into 3 categories. Hyperactivity, inattentiveness, or a combination of the first two. You can take some tests online, by they are by no means meant as a diagnosis.

I think you should make an appointment with a psychiatrist for a diagnosis. They might prescribe you Adderall, which really helps. I got diagnosed recently and I can attest to it. If you have ADD, usually it starts early from childhood
