@kandidubrall Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect! Was the surgery you had the liver transplant you had as you noted in another comment you made? If so, it could be due to the types of medications you are now on, just a thought! Contact the social worker/patient advocate from your transplant team with your concerns.

Another thing to try might be journaling out your thoughts and how you are affected. I find keeping a pen and paper handy to write notes to myself, to get thoughts out of my mind helps many days. There doesn't have to be a structured method, just write to yourself if that is comfortable for you. Here is a discussion thread I started a while ago, that you may find some pointers.

How are you doing today?
