When I was first put on Lithium just over 3yrs ago I thought my brain function got worse. But over the longer term that hasn’t proven to be the case.
Last year I saw a neuropsychologist for 10 weeks. She did a lot of tests then tailored exercises specifically to address weaknesses. She then did more tests at the end of the 10 weeks.
I found it really reassuring going through the process and realising that my brain was no worse than anyone else’s.
