I Think I Have Weakened My Memory. Can I Restrengthen It?!
Question: I Think I Have Weakened My Memory!. Can I Restrengthen It!?
Before: I had an above average memory!. I remembered everything so well, and had a above average; even gifted memory!.
I went sailing about a week ago!.!.!.!. and I got a few blows to the head by the metal boom (piece holding the sail that sways) Some were very hard, others medium and a very little of them minor!.
Now: I feel like I cannot remember things as well as I used to!. Its not totally shot, in the case that I don' remember basic things like passwords, names of family, etc!. I just feel that before this happened, my memory was so much better!.
I am worrying so much that I'm even having anxiety attacks and what not!.
Could my memory had weakened!? My mom says its just because I have been off of school for 3 months, but I think otherwise!.
However, if it did weaken, is there anyway(s) of getting it back up to par!?
And also, if I went to my doctor who has a cat scan of my head/brain/skull from last year, could they tell if my memory had gone!?

Answers:
At CT scan isn't going to show memory loss!. They can only see cut-aways of the shape of the brain!. You have to be tested for memory loss!. Since you've been off for the summer it's highly believable that you could be off your game a little!. If your (repeated) blows to the head caused a concussion you would know based on how well you react when trying to keep your balance and then there's the ever-present sparkles when standing up a little faster than usual!. Having a concussion can definitely take its toll on your memory!. The doctor will have a course of treatment for that!. But if you're simply rusty from relaxing for three months then try playing 'Brain Age' or 'Brain Age 2' for the Nintendo DS!. There are some REALLY basic basic and fun games in there that will quickly and painlessly get your brain back on track!.
I'm sure it works because before I started playing I could feel my cheddar slowly slipping off of the cracker bit by bit because of my dull and highly repetitive job!. Your brain needs exercise just like the muscles of your body!. If getting a DS is out of the question, try snapping up the paper once your dad's done and play the Sudoku game they have in there almost daily!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
