Here are the areas of cognitive and emotional loss that I have either read about in Medical Research Articles or personally experienced thus far:

1. Planning
2. Organizing
3. Self-Awareness
4. Self-Regulation
5. Initiation of Action
6. Word Recall
7. Lexical Memory
8. Conscious Memory of Events
9. Declarative Memory
10. Attention Deficit
11. Tactile Discrimination
12. Problems with Sleep
13. Depression
14. Irritability
15. Poor Judgement
16. Concentration Problems
17. Agitation
18. Panic Attacks
19. Stuttering
20. Stammering
21. Brain Blanking Out
22. Loss of Words in Brain
23. Inability to get the Thoughts From the Brain out through the Lips (Complete Silence)
24. Repetitive Reading of Printed Words without Retaining Understanding & Meaning

Although, I personally do not suffer from every one of these symptoms, it is no wonder why I suffer so terribly much of the time around the people that I am the closest to and in social settings, when prior to CRPS, I used to be such a people person!

Personally, I suffer in 22 of the areas listed above.
