Thanks for the advice all... Well, I'm going for a job interview tommorow, so hopefully that'll turn out alright, even though I'm not sure I won't have a freak out and quit (if I get it). Until I can get a diagnosis and a perscription from a doctor, I'm gonna look into getting some Min-chex. I heard somewhere that it helps anxiety.
Can anyone relate to this? The scariest thing for me, sometimes, is not remembering what I was like before all this started happening, and losing sight of what I was capable of. It's not like I have days where things are even close to normal... I have upward and downward slopes in my performance, but overall I never go above a certain point (the point that I was at over a year ago). I can't wrap my mind around an idea or problem, and my thinking isn't automatic. I have to initiate every, little thought that runs through my mind. Everything that used to come easy to me seems so alien. For example, sometimes it seems remarkable to me that anyone might remember a complete text or verse of anything in verbatum, or something they saw.
