Welcome incognition
Congrats on your sober time!
My first year of sobriety was pretty tough. My memory and cognitive issues were very disturbing. I am a voracious reader and I couldn't follow a plot or keep up with who the characters were or what they were doing. I couldn't even follow a 30 minute sitcom on TV, I would have to keep rewinding because I couldn't remember what I had just watched. My memory was non-existent. I couldn't find words in my brain, I felt mentally sluggish and in a fog.
I was back and forth to my doctor, for that first year, insisting on test after test.
But, good news! It got better. I got better. Everything came back, my reading ability, my memory, my brain! They all came back!
Keep going, it will get better, it will be worth it!
