When I stopped drinking I was well messed up in the brain department. But I seemed to have a good memory for the first thirty years of sobriety. Then it started to go off. There always have been big chunks of my childhood missing, but now thee are also many events in my sobriety gone as well, and my memory generally is not what it was.
I had tests for Alzheimer's which were negative, and I may be a little young for that. I think the main problem is probably residual brain damage from drinking. I do some exercises that my daughter recommended, like word puzzles but apart from that, well it is a beautiful day today, I think I'll make the most of it
