um i do enough of crossword, sudoku, word search .they seem they arent enough to help ….the games on my nintendo ds that helps to jog my overall brain power…nothing seem to work ..i feel as if my brain power is going down and going away. i ve tried the supplements such as gingseng, ginko bibloa…im trying to figure this out… it still eludes me..

the factors could be contributing this…

working overnights – not seeing people this way.
stress?
lonliness?
food?
i m taking supplements as well they might affect -

abs and lean ? power for men vitamins , fish oil (omega) , l argentine, brain power (gingseng and ginko)… to name a few.

i do physical workouts but again , its only physical and not mental .
i do some reading but not as much as i did in the past. i think i have to read more of newspaper and get activetly involved with debates ..i could write too…but i need to perfect my writing through a class or something.

sometimes, i get this vague , i cant describe it accurately but i get this sensation where you feel some very low grade pain spots on my head ..sometimes in the back and some localized pain areas.. i wouldnt call em pain but what else i could describe …its weird they dont interfere with my daily routine…

is there something that can help ? boosters? food? will a mri help to determine and identify the source? i know i have a very complex electrochemical machine that runs and the last thing im worried about is losing my mind!

is there a rx that helps? i used to be on prozac before and it helped greatly …maybe its the neurotransmitter that needs some serious help? i dont know ? i used to be my witty self, have the right words to say ….i felt as if im completely gone zombie … helpp!! yes , im desperate …i couldnt bear the thought of losing oneself as i have my friend of mine who had lost himself…
i need my brain power back !!!

your feedback would be greatly appreciated!
my brain power needs help specifically ..deductive thinking, logic, common sense…..

I suffer from PTSD, chronic fatigue syndrome, and depression. I’ve been on disability for three years, but really want to work again. For some time, though, I’ve had trouble with things as simple as my phone number and easy mathematical computations. What bothers me most is that I always had a great vocabulary and writing ability. Now, I have difficulty recalling many words that should pop right into my head. I do Sudoku puzzles and crosswords daily, watch a lot of documentaries. My knowledge is increasing, but the ability to convey my thoughts is waning. What can I do???
