Feeling Confused
I feel distracted today. I am having headaches. I am confused about my roles at work. I am having an exam on April. I feel like I am gonna fail. I am afraid that I am having cognitive impairment. I am not sure my meds are working anymore. I feel lost. I am not sure what to do.

It seems like you are going through a really rough time and it is similar to a mental fog where we can't see things clearly at the moment. But you know, you came to 7 cups, posted about this, and shared with us how you feel. That is a good way to express yourself and reach out.
I can understand that your exam is so close and you have to juggle so many things at once. No wonder you feel distracted because it is a very real situation. Some times, trying some relaxation exercises might help to feel better at the moment. I know it won't fix the problems ahead of you, but it gives us time to pause all the traffic in our head for a second and just breathe. Those 5 minutes of mindfulness/ relaxation can give our mind some buffer zone to detach ourselves from the situation and focus on ourselves. How we are doing and if we are okay. And then, we might have enough mental space to actually go through tasks one by one . What do you think about it?
You can always check out mindfulness exercises at 7 cups at the Path section. They are short and calming exercises so you can check them out if you wish.
Also, do you want to talk more about it? You can always connect to the listeners here or send me a message if you like.
I really want to appreciate that you took the time to share your feelings here. It is not so easy. But you did it and i am so proud of you. 😊
