Hi Chris

I noticed this inability to recognise faces a few years ago -- a great loss for someone who thinks and functions visually (was an artist who used to paint portraits! Faces were very important to my way of negotiating in the world...) Now I am often in the situation of trying to place a person who seems a stranger to me. I have offended many with my clued out-ness.

I have taken SSRI's and TCA's in the past, (no anticonvulsants, antipsychotics or neuroleptics). Except for the last 10 days trialing dexedrine, I have been drug free for over a year now. I wish I could hope for cognitive improvement if we return to school, (as Mitch suggests in his post) but I have been teaching for years at post-secondary level and the problem continues...maybe you have to be a student? <g>

best wishes,
may-b
