I constantly forget what I’m supposed to be doing, multiple times every hour, every day. I can’t drive, because I can’t remember how to control the car or what a red light means.

Reading was the most consistent joy in my life. I edited books for a living. Now I can’t read for work or pleasure: I can’t remember what I’ve read from one page to the next. Reading for more than a few minutes gives me a migraine. A huge part of my identity, gone. I can skim a bit online; it’s not the same.
