Just wanted to add my two cents here....I don't always feel my thinking is effected, rather it is the ability to communicate externally. For example, I can type some of the most brilliant emails. I very rarely ever have any spelling and/or grammar errors while at work. I've gotten A's on all my papers I've written thus far for my Masters degree.
Buuuuuuuut, when it comes to talking, whether it be in person or on the phone, I just can't seem to get the words to come out like I want to. I either stumble over words or just can't think of what I really want to say or lose concentration or stare into space.
It sucks, because I work as a Recruiter and ideally I am supposed to be on the phone alot, but since my voice feels detached from me, and I have trouble concentrating and keeping focus, I resort to just writing emails. It really sucks.
I don't think I've become dumber with DP, but my cognitive thinking and concentration sure has gone to shit!
