I've said before that I feel like taking my meds has caused me to lose 10 - 20 IQ points. My ability to problem solve and do the most basic of math equations was the most noticable impairment.
However, at my therapists suggestion, I have been able to improve upon my thinking and make up some of the ground that I lost. I have been downloading and completling math worksheets - starting with the most basic and working my way back up to some advanced algebra. At the same time I do a little work with crosswords and sudoku everyday.
I may not be able to do this as timely as I once would have, but there HAS been a noticable improvement in my ability to think on my feet and problem solve.
