Problems with my comprehension

It feels like I've been functioning okay for about a week. By this I mean that I haven't been in any fog, no meltdowns or not recognizing someone, who knew me.

Things can change so quickly with my cognition. A short time later, I just felt very sad. I just couldn't figure it out and I was mad that this was happening. I just felt like crying and I didn't know why. It was definitely confusing for me. I know that this has been happening to me lately and usually it will take some time for me to figure out why the tears are there.

Then just a short time ago, while I was reading the posts on social media, wanting to comment, but couldn't. The reason that I couldn't respond was because I couldn't understand what was written.

Living with a memory impairment doesn't just affect your memory, it affects your cognition. For me, that means that sometimes I struggle a great deal with comprehension. I think that this problem seems to be increasing over this past year. What is strange to me, is why do I feel it emotionally, such as crying, before I realize that my cognition has decreased? Sometimes living with a memory impairment is like a puzzle.
