Yes it gets frustrating because I'm not like I was before where multi tasking flowed but if tasks are completed and results are satisfactory does it matter if you are having to accomplish it in a different manner? No. In fact I say more power to us for being able to learn, shows we are still alert and active upstairs.

Thanks Bud. Work has been tougher and more stressful. I feel overwhelmed and I cant relax or unwind after work knowing I'm going to be stressed out the wazoo the next day. I really, really could use a few weeks off to decompress and destress so I can rid myself from this state and begin the healing process.

On top of work being difficult, it is also tougher to keep tabs with my friends and remember what they are doing and what they recently told me. I feel like I am one step behind when I am talking with them and that my memory has taken a step back compared to what it used to be. This scares the hell out of me. I hate all of this and I also know I'm in no position to complain.
