Is it common to forget few things due to multitasking? As I am a software engineer working on a big project, I will be taking care of many things to avoid production issues and to do not get escalations from client. I am also a family member and working from home, I will always be disturbed by my 2 year old son, and family members. It seems this problem becomes more serious and might become mad soon. Could you suggest what are the common tests that can detect any problems in my brain. What are the long term problems from multitasking? Can I leave like that without consulting doctor?
