Great advice, I will start that now that some of the recovery is completed. Definitely a weakness for me to get used to writing things down as I am going from a photographic memory to one with many limitations and am doing good working through all of it but a journal to monitor my progress as well as all of the areas impacted is a great idea, perhaps everything won’t feel so overwhelming.

Thank you so much again!

Hello, I am also going into my seventh month and I am totally with you. It is hard going from a high functioning professional to managing a constant headache, overwhelming fatigue, cognitive challenges - not being able to motivate, multitask, read to no longer being able to process math (yet). Journaling has been a godsend as an outlet for how I am feeling (as my short term memory is shot) I can go back and see how much I have progressed. For 2 months I just sat in a chair and stared at the birds and the yard with no sense of time. Now I can speak clearly and I am no longer a fall risk. Thank goodness for my therapist’s! Keep up your therapy. Small wins add up. And keep up with this group! I am starting a new PT based on something I learned in group! Good luck & Thank goodness for this group!!!
