Hard time paying attention to the now

[Bornstarch]

I told my physical therapist that I'm never concentrating on what it is I'm doing. I'm always thinking about some other thing. She told me I have to start paying attention to the "now." I think it's too late. I've been doing it so long that I can't do it anymore. I'm always thinking about something else other than what it is I'm doing.

When I'm taking medication for example. I take it when a second later, I wonder if I really did. My mind was preoccupied with something else.

I forget shit like that all the time now too, chalk it up to a combination of old age and drug abuse, what are you gonna do...

I'm with you Sherbro. Recently went to the doctor (A GP) and he was some sort of combat arms dude at some point, I'm thinking some tier 1 dude based on a few things. Anywho, nowadays he looks and carries himself more like a yoga hippy dippy kind of guy with a bit of The Dude wrapped into it. I brought up my mind racing, anxiety, and lack of attention in the present. He told me to look up mindfulness and to start practicing it. He theorized that anxiety and lack of attention in the present is somewhat helpful in my line of work, and that I've leaned on it so much that it has infected my personal life. Been trying to practice mindfulness, but it's hard to rewire shit that you've programmed in your mind to work a certain way. Anyways, look into it man.

u ever take a shower and lie down in the tub? just do that and chill the fuck out and clear your mind. count to 100 if you need to, but it's a good place to start meditating.

What brought on the vertigo? Did you hit the back of your head?

Is this one of those vestibular rehab situations (functional neurology), where you do various eye saccades ?
