Hi Mia,
If you believe you have undiagnosed mental problems, the first step would be to get tested and diagnosed.
Once you understand what your "problem" is, you'll have a much easier time finding work-arounds and study methods. You can look for tips and tricks from other people facing the same challenges. Depending on the diagnosis, you might also be able to get accommodations that help you succeed.
Personally, I always take lots of notes, even if there are lecture notes because it helps me to focus and forces me to pre-digest what I am listening to. Even better is to read the next chapter before class and work through the notes after class, add comments and read up on concepts that I find difficult.
I hope this helps! All the best to you!
