I have brain shrinkage at the age of 23 my brain hasnt even finished developing yet but it already has shrunk all over what could possibly be causing this i dont have an appointment with neurologist til next year really worried about it any ideas?

It is difficult to interpret this without knowing what symptoms you are having. Is it possible it is not shrinking but it hasn’t fully reached its adult size? I would say that is possible. Have you had repeated head trauma, like from boxing or football? Perhaps the neurologist can put you on a cancellation list so if an appointment becomes available due to cancellation, they can put you in sooner.
