"It has meant the world to me"

Quick summary

After traumatic brain injuries and fears of early-onset Alzheimer's like her mother, Ruthie had lost faith in her ability to learn. Jim Kwik's Superbrain quest restored her confidence and memory, breaking her cycle of anxiety and helping her love life again.

Before taking this quest, I was terribly afraid that I was getting Alzheimer’s. My Mom died of early onset Alzheimer’s just after her 65th birthday. As I reached my 60’s, I started having multiple falls from which I got a Traumatic Brain Injury. I could feel what happened to my Mom happening to me, and I became very anxious and very depressed. I no longer believed that I had the same capacity for learning that I’d enjoyed my whole life. It was truly frightening. Jim Kwik’s “Superbrain” course has meant the world to me. I am able to learn and to remember what I’ve learned. It sounds simple, but doubting that capacity is like getting caught in a cycle of doom. I am ever so thankful to be taking one step at a time off that infernal cycle and loving my life again. It’s been an amazing journey. How’s my brain, Jim? It’s SUPER! Thank you!
