I hope you find something that help. maybe even try playing memory games online, it might help kick start that process again.

Its a real problem, I know when I have been manic I my cognitive skills really do suffer, and it takes quite a while to really get back up to speed. The meds can make this even worse. Lithium is a big one for memory problems, and fogginess. I was on lithium for 7 years and I kept complaining to my pdoc about the lack of memory. He told me to think of it like practicing for Alzheimer's, I didn't think it was that funny tho. So I tried to fiqure out other ways to help with my forgetfulness.

Some of it worked and some didn't. I tried using alarms for reminders, that helped with some things, making lists, and notes worked pretty good, as long as the note was coherent .

I just took a quick look and this guy seems to have some interesting and good ideas, with the help from some apps.

The evernote app might work for you, if you could send yourself notes, and even snapshots or documents of what the processes are somehow.

Hopefully you will be find this so much easier without the hypomania in the way. But if you can find a good system for you, then if the hypomania returns you will be more prepared. Honestly this interests me as well. Memory problems can be such a huge source of anxiety for me, and I don't even have a job. So I feel your pain with that.
