Judy&Scott, I'm totally with you on the memory tip. I was a pretty damn sharp student at school and university - the first to spot mistakes, quick to learn complex concepts, very observant and with an excellent memory.
Now, after 7 years of major depression I have serious trouble understanding simple concepts and recalling even very recent material. It's gutting to go from being a sharp cookie to being slow and forgetful. Often at work [when I make it in] I feel like I'm thinking through mud or trying to wade through murky waters.
Not fun.
Keep up the posts everyone, this site is fantastic.
pedr.
