Hi there. I have been having a concentration and memory issue, and I am not sure if it is a symptom of anxiety or something worse.
Lately, I have not been able to concentrate in class. This is especially true of my morning class, statistics. At first, I thought that I was just sleepy since t was my first class of the day, but I genuinely cannot force myself to pay attention to what is being taught. I hardly retain anything anymore and I am disinterested in my work. I feel like I am watching the world go by.
I've heard stories of kids who smoke weed and develop memory/cognitive issues - and while I have never done drugs or smoked weed I worry that these issues are happening to me. It feels like my brain cells are dying off one by one and each day I am losing my ability to focus more and more.
I'm scared that I will eventually lose all cognitive function and that my brain will just stop working. I worry that it is a brain tumor or some kind of neurological disorder that I've never heard of, but I'm too afraid to google it because I'm sure you all know how that goes. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
