A few considerations: First, do not expect Alzheimer's, Frontal Dementias, or other degenerative causes. Secondly, do consider sleep disorder, emotional issues, thyroid problems, medication adverse effects (if pertinent), vitamin deficiencies (like B-12, thiamine), prior head injuries, infections (syphilis, HIV), toxins (like heavy metals). See an internist at your school to facilitate.
