does your mind often get tired when you study?

Post Reply New Topic

I find whenever I learn new things i.e. do homework or study, I find my brain gets tired quicker then most people. I find that whenever I do a reading assignment, listen to a lecture in class, or study notes, I find that in about ten minutes my brain gets tired and I have to stop and take a break or else my brain shuts down, feels exhausted, and can't take in anymore information. Do you have a similar problem? Is this normal for most people with AS?

Pretty common for me as well. I take a water bottle into class these days and if I can get away with it a banana and a chocolate bar. Sugar and fruit is good if you need to pay attention. In my case, I think it mostly has to do with the horrible food they serve at University.
