A member asked:
Is there an actual emotional or medical diagnosis pertaining to "retirement brain fog" due to retirement after decades of work when one is otherwise healthy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Retirement Brain Fog: Studies demonstrate retirement accelerates the decline in verbal memory function. Dementia is a decline in mental ability with interference in daily life. Alzheimer's is the most common cause of dementia. Staying active both physically and mentally helps the brain and body function better and slows decline in functions including memory. Best regards for health!
