Immediately following my physical recovery from COVID, I experienced a dementia like feeling. It was quite scary. Forgetting where I was and going most of all.

Immediately following my physical recovery from COVID, I experienced a dementia like feeling. It was quite scary. Forgetting where I was and going most of all.
- gremlinsinc 6y agoYES!! or knowing where I was going but.... losing my spatial awareness - I'm on my own street a block from home and nothing looks familiar and I'm expecting things to look like Ohio where I grew up, not rural Utah... I'm 41, and I should have at least 20+ years before I get dementia I hope, and nobody's ever had it in my family until > 90, so hopefully I don't get it till then. Edit: I used to deliver pizzas, my spatial awareness is a keen skill I've honed, it's odd for it to just not work and for me to not know where I am. I usually have my route planned out to the lane changes I'll make and where I'll make them, as well as avoiding every left-hand turn I can.
- underseacables 6y agoI’m 40! Agree, loss of spatial awareness, walking from one room into another and suddenly not knowing where I was. It’s like I just woke up. Took a while to finally slowly go away.
- colordrops 6y agoI had that too, but it slowly went away.
