(((((Lol Elan))) Yes, I could say the same.

Yes for me stress effects my memory and I can suddenly feel lost and disoriented.
I can relate to the cycles that beauflow is discussing, I also struggle with PTSD and the different stress levels that presents with PTSD and how my brain and nervous system reacts. I find it very troubling and it interrupts my daily productivity capacity. I can even see it in my writing where I put wrong words in or leave words out if I am posting under stress.

I still function and can express a lot of capacity, however if I am triggered severely, that trigger or series of triggers can bring on a sense of feeling scatter brained and I become forgetful.
