 I was reading some material for my literary classes and realized, or rather I caught myself stressing over some issues I’ve begun experiencing recently like not feeling as sharp as I used to be, having trouble understanding what I’m reading, or failing to live up to my potential, etc. And I guess arguing with myself around the issues I mentioned before, reading the new material, and understanding the new material basically feels like multitasking, lol. And I feel like that can hinder my ability to focus and get my schoolwork done.

But is this valid, or am I just reading too deep into this? 

Also, not sure if this belongs on r/Anxiety, but this is the only subreddit I browse (although sporadically), so can someone forward me to more appropriate subreddits if that’s the case.
