I’m not a big fan of CBT, this sounds more interesting. You have to challenge your brain.
“Narrowly defined, CR is a set of cognitive drills or compensatory interventions designed to enhance cognitive functioning. However, from the vantage point of the rehabilitation field, CR engages the participant in a learning activity to enhance the neurocognitive skills relevant to overall recovery goals.[4] CR programs vary in the extent to which they reflect these narrow or broader perspectives, and there is ongoing research to identify the active ingredients that result in a positive response to treatment. Data suggests that when cognitive remediation is provided to people with schizophrenia, it is most effective when given in the broader context of psychosocial rehabilitation.[2][3] Recent attention has turned to incorporating motivational enhancements into the treatment of cognitive dysfunction for psychological disorders.[4]”

I completed the previous iterations of what’s currently called Posit Science BrainHQ.com. I did both about 10 years ago and the research into this was in its infancy at the time. At that time they were called The Posit Science Brain Fitness Program (auditory training) and Posit Science Cortex With Insight (visual training). I responded well to them and I found them entertaining and effective. The change was gradual but I decided to give them a try because I had begun to forget whether I had taken my meds or not. That was 10 years ago and my memory since then hasn’t failed. Now everyone in my family remarks on how good my memory is. I think the training gives the brain a foundation on which to build and when the foundation is there then the brain uses the foundation to rebuild itself through everyday experiences from then on.
