Hi all.

I quit smoking almost 4 months ago and I have been having concentrarion and memory problems.

It's really been worrying me since I work with languages and this is very important for my job. Sometimes, I can't remember a certain word or find it difficult to express concepts even in my native language. I don't have problems with analyzing and thinking in general but this inability to remember words is driving me crazy!!!

Can anyone help? I know it takes time for the brain to adapt to the lack of nicotine but I really feel I should do something about it. Maybe certain foods or supplements will help? Or maybe I should go to a doctor?

I wanted to do some sort of memory tests/quizzes, are there such here?

Thanks a lot in advance.

P.S. Also, when trying to concentrate, I sometimes get throbbing headaches in my temples.
