I cant Watch or understand the plot of any movie or series, book included!
Please share your thoughts!
If I don’t have access to captions, I can’t understand or follow the plot of any movie either. That’s because I have such bad sense of hearing. I can’t follow plots even with the help of hearing aids. I need captions.
I used to be the same way. It got better and now every movie or show I watched back then is like watching something new that is vaguely familiar.

Schizophrenia, bipolar, depression and even normal aging causes decline in cognition. But there are few supplements which can enhance existing cognition and these include Omega 3, Phosphatidylserine soy version, DMG etc.

I’ve always found it hard to concentrate @bi6907. My psychotic symptoms stupify me - I have to work in an entry level job because of this; I’m highly educated & intelligent but I can’t concentrate so I can’t use my brain much. I can only read 1-2 pages of a book a day. I generally watch any TV with captions.
Sometimes I’m out of my mind feeling totally incompacitated.
Sometimes increasing the dose of antipsychotic improves cognitive symptoms or by adding a antipsychotic which is good for cognition like risperidone or lurasidone helps. If that doesnt work you can try atomoxetine

Atmoxetine though seem safe and non stimulant it can affect heart rythms so need to be very caution especially if have heart issues also it does’nt bring any noticeable cognition benefits.
