After working for many years in a “fast pace environment” I can’t help but notice that I have increasing difficulties to do simple tasks.
In office, I always start multiple tasks at the same time. I noticed I often start but barely finish.
At home, it gets even worse. “Let’s make tea” takes several back and forth to the kitchen, wondering what I am doing there. Then forgetting I boiled water.
I’ve tried to trick myself by ordering tasks, but ultimately I end up asking myself what was I doing until now.
I don’t take medicines of any kind. “1st world problem” is granted, accepted, validated.
I’m sure I’m not the only one. Have you found a recipe that works for you ?

Sounds like you made changes to get better. The TDLR glosses over all that work and makes it seem like you are saying for OP to just sit and wait for it to resolve on its own.
Well, a little bit of both. It looks like OP is already putting in the time by diving down fruitless tangents, and will ultimately learn this lesson one way or another. I do believe it’s inevitable from OP’s described patterns, and that they ultimately shouldn’t worry too much about it.
