Problem reading and understanding
Since the past four years I've been observing that I find it hard to understand any written piece of information be it any kind. I would need 5-6 times of rereading sometimes 10 times. I ignored it, but it effecting my life very badly. I'm also finding to hard to focus on a task for more than a few minutes. My mind is numb and blank most of the time. I find it extremely hard to work through any sort of problem. I just can't think.
Can't figure out what's wrong with me.
Anticipating proper diagnosis. Thanks in advance.
