I always used to be very organized. I ran my own business with two locations. Now I get confused about what day it is and I often turn up for appointments on the wrong day or at the wrong time. I have all my commitments on Google calendars but I still get confused. This is a big frustration.
I have to make sure that I take someone with me into doctor appointments because I don't always understand what they are telling me.
Sometimes I wake up in the morning and I'm not sure where I am. We have moved a few times in the last ten years but I'm not even sure which Country I'm in. We have lived in the UK, the US and Spain during the last forty years.

Cognitive issues, as you described, that result in memory or focus issues are very frustrating. I am glad to see that you take someone with you to appointments; that is wise! How long have you been experiencing these issues? Have you considered being evaluated by a neuropsychologist? Such an evaluation might provide information about medications or other therapies that could help you.
