That is fascinating, thanks for the link. It coincides eerily with my experience: I moved to France in March this year, with no French whatsoever. I was also taking a new mood-stabilizer (part of the reason I moved was that I had a bit of a life crisis - end of long relationship, career change etc. etc.).
When I got here, I realized I was picking up the language really fast (I've learnt other languages, so I have something to compare it to), and that my brain felt... the only way I can describe it is childlike. Anyway, it's one anecdote, but it's interesting that a mood-stabilizer might affect how the brain does other things, too. Thanks again for the link.
