This is from a month ago, so I hope you're feeling better now.
I've been going through a similar experience, on and off over the last couple of weeks, and I really resonate with this bit;
It sounds like you got much sicker than I have. But it's still having a crippling effect on my executive functioning . I've accomplished almost nothing for a couple of weeks, and I'm meant to be preparing for a live concert this weekend, and then a 2-3 month trip away in a couple of weeks : /
Hey, doing better already here. (At least no longer sick) Although I still have frequent days where it seems like I cannot get anything done.
I think a big part of the problem for me is that I don't really allow myself enough rest. Even when sick, I tend to try and rest by playing games, watching movies or reading stuff online. But if I can manage to just stop myself and do nothing (really nothing) for 30 minutes, that seems to help so much more.
I hope you find a way to get up and running again so you can prepare for your concert and trip. But it's also fine if you don't, I think. You will get through it either way, good luck!
