I know exactly how you feel, except I don't know the cause of my cognitive dysfunction. I hope it is the meds. Then it's reversible. I'm kinda worried I have a brain tumor..

I tried reading an intriguing article on the neuroscientific basis for positive symptoms in sz today. I had to read every paragraph like three times. Then I kept having to go back and summarize everything I had read after every section, and I still had problems remembering what I learned. It makes learning anything seem futile; why should I take the time, when I'm just going to forget everything in 5 minutes anyway?

I'm trying to see my struggle to be productive despite these cognitive issues in a romantic light-"she would go to any lengths to accomplish her noble goals!". lol
