I have really bad brain fog like my mind is blocked and there is no reception of information from outside like while I am listening to others or while i am reading or watching a movie. Its like i am not paying attention to them. My processing is very slow. Its like something stops the flow of information from coming in. I can't understand what i am reading and can't retain anything in mind. Because of these difficulties i am totally unable to perform academically. Please tell me what is happening with me.
