Bookgurl, I'm curious about something - as I'm always trying to see if I can figure out strategies to work around my weak areas to compensate.
I have excellent long-term memory. Most friends who aren't around me lots think I have an amazing memory, but my sons & those very close to me know how bad my working memory & sometimes, my short-term memory is.
Have you always had a poorer working memory, or is it after the reaction to the med & family stresses that your working RAM (my term for it) became less? If it's always been your weak point, I have a few questions I'd love to ask. And did your therapist have any suggestions for dealing with your small working RAM? Thanks for sharing.
