I do have one suggestion for you, you might want to have your thyroid level tested. In particular if you're on lithium. Lithium can cause low thyroid and that can cause memory problems or having trouble thinking clearly.
As for what I do, like Forgive77 I just try to let what I can go. Sometimes that works.

Thanks for your response. Your thyroid-related suggestion is perfect. I went from being hypo. to hyper. with treatment with the the hormones in between. BTW I'd take hypothyroidism any day. It's been a horrible rollarcoaster for several years until they took me off all thyroid medicine 6 months ago. Yes, the lithium was to blame all along. Long way of saying with NO medication the thyroid tests are due. This does correlate timeframe-wise.
