Answers:
Brain damage from the alcohol could be the culprit!. Having my own history of recreational indulgences, I too am having memory problems!. Abstinence, as mentioned in another reply, is the best cure!. I know of no instant fixes!. I read the book called "Change Your Brain, Change Your Life", by Daniel Amen!. Inside the book he shows how the brain is affected by alcohol using SPECT scans, photos of brains before and after a period of one years abstinence!. You can see in black and white the "wet brain", and an improved brain after a year of abstinence!.(A wake up call for me, personally)!.!. However, the culmination of damage may or may not go away completely ,depending on individual tolerances to the toxins ingested!.
Good "live source" vitamin supplements have helped me!.!.!. laying off the processed foods!. Avoiding products with artificial sweetners, which have been shown to mess up some peoples memory!. 20 minutes of aerobic exercise has the same effect as one ritalin and a prozac tablet!. Hope this helps!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Ok!. to drink alcohol is not making things better but then I do not think it is so easy to quite it immediately either!. - Maybe a first step is to try to get used with non alcoholic drinks!. - They are not so bad as it sounds like!.

I cured myself from a similar situation by writing down in my calendar whenever I placed cell phone in a place that I not carried with me!. - If I left it in the kitchen I noted it in the calendar for then, when I wanted to have it, just checking it in the calendar!.

Then, when I felt safe with that, I began to only write clues about where I had placed it!. Like drawing a picture of a stove!.

Finally I began to try to write the notes in my mind only!.

Step by step, item by item!.

Today I am far from perfect but average in misplacing things!. Although what I am proud of is that I usually locate it back from checking my memory calendar!.

If your hubby are driven crazy because of your situation you should ask him to wait to the day he is getting old!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
