That was some article. I recognized so much of myself in it and kept going "yep, yep, yep" as I read. I am cognitively disabled to the point where I lost my last job (over 3 years ago) because I could NOT learn the computer program. No matter how hard I try, I can't memorize much of anything, nor can I focus on reading for longer than a few minutes. It is supremely frustrating because I used to have such a good mind, and now I can't even work because I'd have to be able to learn new things. Ugh.
