Memory and concentration

In the depths of my darkest times I couldn't concentrate on watching TV or reading. I previously  would always go to bed and read before going to sleep but I couldn't enjoy books as I couldn't  sit and read a book; remember, follow and enjoy it.

In time I used to get a magazine that contained crosswords. It was quite a while before I could actually fill them in. 

Anything to keep the mind ticking over is a bonus. Colouring books for adults are so popular.

Thankfully, I now read daily before going to sleep.

My memory has never been too good. I used to blame the shortage of brain on my children sucking my brains out as they are all very clever and have done so well in life.

I try not to worry about it as it can stress me so much and I can become quite anxious/uptight.

You need to get your mind in to a relaxing state; set time aside where you empty your mind of everything. Just picture yourself in your favourite place; somewhere restful. Let those relaxing thoughts/feeling wash all over you.

Hope that you have had a good day.

I also find my memory is worse, more for getting ready to leave the house in the morning, eg i leave alot of things eg house keys, phone, purse etc etc :/ xxx
