Can not stop stressing about potential damage I've done during my addiction. I've definitely noticed my memory has gotten worse over the past few years. Did anyone notice improvement to their memory? How long did it take? I'm just over 3 months sober and I don't think I've really noticed much improvement

I am almost 9 months and still not remembering much, but they say eventually the brain will heal itself. It just takes a while and it’s different for everyone.
I’ve learned from my dr that it can take up to two years for the brain to start to heal itself. And sometimes some damage can be permanent but every person is different. I suggest talking to one about it. There are probably things you can do under the care of a doctor to get better. Ask about PAWS. Post addiction Withdrawl syndrome. Please don’t use google for it. I know it’s disheartening news. I’m having trouble with being patient myself. I understand.
