Often I am not able to find the word I wan
I find a word that is not the same and it is terribly frustrating.
I also repeat myself.

Yes. It comes and goes, combined with slurred speech.

My speech and my lack of using the right words (or even remembering a proper noun) was the first thing I was concerned about. Most people will stare at me, waiting. Those who are trying to help will try to finish your sentence.

Overall, most people down in lower Alabama feel sorry for you when you say what you have (PD) without having a clue as to what it is or how it affects you.

I would lose my train of thought in the middle of a sentence; friends/family would remind me of the conversation and I would remember. If I forget a word, I will remember it in a couple of minutes or less.
It's not time yet for a "Place for Mom." It doesn't happen anymore.
I think your idea of resetting is excellent. The information is there. I stopped worrying about every little thing and it's done me a lots of good.
We all have to reset from time to time; I think it's more age related, what you related.,but I'm not an expert on that.
