I'm going through this exact thing currently, too. I sometimes struggle to follow even the most basic of instructions, I have to really, really focus very hard to follow someone explaining something to me because my mind starts to wander half way through the explanation. I have to have things explained to me two or three times, and I can feel very dumb at times because of it. I find struggle to have productive meetings, because I'm bored to the point of physical discomfort at times. I went to the doctors about it and they referred me for relaxation therapy (?!). So I'm struggling to know what to do about it currently. I was tested for ADHD as a child, but they concluded that I was just poorly behaved. It seems to be a pretty common issue with engineers, I've came across loads who have similar issues. I actually posted something similar to your post in the funfunfunction forum recently: https://www.funfunforum.com/t/attention-and-focus-issues/3892/20 https://www.funfunforum.com/t/attention-and-focus-issues/389...
