If you've never seen them before, there are many on-line games on 
gamehouse.com that can help with memory... my personal favorite is Super 
TextTwist. It is a really good game you can play by yourself. You're given six 
random letters and have to make as many 3-6 letter words as you can in a given 
amount of time. They show you how many words of each number of letters can be 
made and as long as you get at least one of the 6-letter words, even if you 
don't get the rest, you pass on to the next series of letters. As the clock 
runs out, it shows you the words you missed, so it helps you learn words (and 
spelling). It's keeps a running score until you fail to get a 6-letter word, so 
you play against yourself to see how high a score you can achieve. Here's the 
link to Super TextTwist:

  How is your memory these days?  Have you experienced memory loss?  If so, how 
does it affect your life?  Does your faulty memory affect your life with your 
loved ones?  

  Memory loss has to do with the myelin sheath.  The myelin sheath coats the 
neurons in the spinal column to cement memories.  TM destroys the myelin 
sheath, so that our memories become clouded or we have no memories at all.

  The more we repeat things we need to remember, the thicker the layer of 
myelin forms around the neurons.  Brain games such as Scrabble, Seduki, Boggle, 
Crossword Puzzles,and other games help us to reform the myelin sheath...

  Any thoughts on this?

  Many hugs,

Hi all,
My memory is very degraded, compared to where it was,
pre-TM(2007). Especially my short/medium term - between 5-days to 5-months
or so. I agree with Dalton's analogy strongly, as I to am highly trained
in the Engineering field..
It's tough sometimes..!

Re: [TMIC] Our Memories

Memory loss definitely.

i was an associate professor of economics at an engineering college, and could 
enter a classroom and teach the entire lecture without notes of any kind.  But 
after getting ™ and after a couple of disastrous lectures wherein I blanked out 
(or had seizures), I was let go.

Now the memory loss for even day-to-day things is degraded.

I suspect it comes from maybe three sources.
In my case the lesion was on the brainstem, and even though it later healed 
over and even cleared up, it left me with a cognitive deficit, which I would 
characterize as becoming easily flustered by mental complications.
The medicines we take for pain and nerve damage control definitely affect 
memory.
Finally, being taken out of a working routine where daily and hourly mental 
performance is required to hold a job means that the necessity of having to 
memorize is taken away.  This alone affects memory, to which any retired person 
can attest.
