Hey,
I've also noticed that my skill seems to be deteriorating a bit. I worry that I may have f'd my attention span. So I decided to run an experiment and see how high I can count in my head. Not out loud. Just count until you lose the thread as some other thought barges in.
I find that I only seem able to get to the low thousands.
I also find that I'm tired all the time. This condition seems to have developed slowly over the past year or so. I don't know when exactly and I have yet to find a doctor who can tell me why.
So I guess my question to you is, how high can you count in your head?
- psankar 8y agoI am not a doctor but had some tiredness issues and found that low vitamin d or low thyroid could cause such. Other symptoms include dry skin, depression, inability to focus, muscle pain etc.

- sjg007 8y agoTry taking a sleep study.
- MrTortoise 8y agoLow thousands? Is that really worth your time? Buy post-it notes, go momento and discover that all is well - distraction on details is part of creativity. Self awareness of it is key to directed productivity.
- amirsarancoder 8y agoWow, my focus is out of control. I started skipping numbers when I was on 50.
