I can relate to feeling like your game is off when your mind is otherwise engaged. A family friend stopped by this afternoon and hinted heavily that her roommate needed some work done and I am self employed in the line of work she was hinting at. I totally ignored her hints. Later my family member asked me if I was going to do the project and I said I was not asked. It takes so much energy out of your day to maintain, and keep moving some days. I bet you are as smart as you ever were,and I hope you will reach a point where your mind is able to focus on those talents again. I know emotional exhaustion makes me feel less able to think and problem solve but i also know it is temporary.
