4.1 This is also Lack of Attention (external distraction) because friends distract you from learning by texting you.

5.1 Anytime that those worries arise, you can practice deep breathing (like I instructed in class) to be calm down. After 5-10 breathes, you can come back to your study.

And you allocate appropriate timetable to self-study and work (if any). That helps you feel comfortable and worry-free.

5.2 This should be lack of attention (internal distraction).

Your worry and stress are internal distractions that drawing your attention away from learning.

7.1 This is lack of attention (external distraction) - Noise and questions from your friends.

7.2 This is Lack of Attention (internal distraction) - your health problem is internal distraction.
