-- it started after I was diagnosed with covid the second time - the first time I had covid I was physically quite sick - but mentally - post recovery didn't struggle - about four months later I got covid again - this time my only symptoms were loss of smell/taste and some weakness - however I noticed I gradually started to forget things - it was like the lights got turned down in my mind - nothing came through clearly or quickly anymore - my thinking became a struggle not a joy - this decline lasted about two weeks and then hit the point it's at today - that was seven months ago and I've noticed little to no improvement on my cognitive facets - the weakness/sluggishness I can treat with caffeine tablets (I'd never been into caffeine/coffee perviously) --
