* I really wish that I would have discovered something like this forum from the beginning, but then again, I didn't have the short term memory for it.
* That my parents had somehow known to take away my phone and computer to an extent, or at least monitor what I was doing better. I had short-term memory loss for months. I had a phone scam occur, and did a lot that I do not remember at all.
* That I had had the right doctor from the beginning, but that's not always the easiest thing to figure out.
* To know that it could possibly take years to recover and that it could be permanent. The many false promises of "only 3 more months" killed me, and I feel like I wasted time. I could have been coping instead of being in waiting all the time for it to just disappear.
* Talk to your loved ones or people you are close with about how you're really feeling. Get it out. If not verbally, than email them or something.
I felt like I was talking about it all these years, but recently my father said something on the phone that hit a nerve with me. I emailed him a very long email about everything I was feeling and going through and it has helped. He thanked me for really explaining, and it took me over 3 years to do that.
