I still read and play guitar because they allow me to keep my sanity. I enjoy them, they help me fufill my sense of purpose, and they occupy my time. I have definitely cut back on how much I read and have switched more to pocasts and audibooks.

I can read for 5-15 minutes before I need a switch in activity or a break. I can play guitar for 20-30 minutes and brain games for about 10-20 minutes. I have stopped the brain games for now and will try the ones that you do. I started those up thinking that I could rewire and heal my brain, but as you have said in another thread, that's not the case.

Most of me still thinks that I will get most of my life back. I don't know if that's realistic or not. That's part of the reason why I still play guitar and read. I want nothing more than to be able to be fully independent. Right now, I'm fully dependent on my family.
