Mostly, from information or sensory overload?


It seems the older I get, the harder it is for me to prioritize information which makes me concerned about my cognitive reasoning abilities i.e. am I going senile or getting slow? Is this normal or as a result of some disease?


For example, I've read about addiction models and treatment efficacy as it relates to these models but my mind keeps wandering to the last email I had from my mom, or the noisy inconsiderate neighbors who are fixing their car in my driveway without permission.


Then, I have to wonder, how much of this info that I read is actually being retained and when it comes to proving retention, will I be able to do this??


I think no but, sometimes, surprise myself by pulling it off. But it feels like luck rather than skill! In the mean time, who knows if laundry gets done, I forget to feed myself, the dog is just staring at me for attention and only hubby knows where hubby is!!!!


Is it just me or what!
