His character is my entire world.

For a long time I would take a simple memory test online each day to see how I was doing. Results were drastic changes day to day.

I was trying to figure out what effect each of the dozens of medications doctors gave me we’re having.

A simple blood thinner stopped the non-sense.

I'm glad you figured it out and also glad you got the reference. That book helped me think through so many of my absurd internalized able-isms and forced me to re-evaluate how I look at myself and others in the context of mental health

Fascinating. Are you comfortable sharing anything further about the condition? Any particular blood thinner?

Genetic Factor 5 Leiden. I clot like crazy. A really bad chemical exposure triggered gene to go crazy. So tons of micro strokes. (TIA) doctors were constantly dismissing, as if it was strokes then I would certainly be dead already.

All blood thinners help with symptoms. Even Asprin helps some.

The main ones. Eliquis and Xarelto both 100% fixed cognitive issue. Side effects are rough. But that’s a separate issue.

sounds very similar to what some people with COVID-19 side effects experience. Don't envy you at all, good luck in your recovery.
