Because of mental issues I haven’t been working or using my brain for over a year and I am absolutely stupid right now.
I’m forgetting words that I knew since elementary school. I couldn’t remember the capital of France the other day.
I experienced this a few years ago when I got brain damage from a failed suicide attempt and couldn’t read sentences properly afterwards.
After 3 months I decided to get a job writing articles and my brain slowly started getting better and I guess back to “normal.” So I know that my brain can get better again, since it’s malleable.
Right now I’m looking for a book that specifically talks about brain becoming dumb from lack of usage or trauma and maybe how to get out of it. Or other memory-related books that are good would be nice too.
