I have a long history of severe anxiety and Bipolar type 2. I've recently been on a big low plus having panic attacks nearly every day. Over the past few months I frequently find myself in the middle of an activity with no memory of starting it, having conversations that I completely forget about and unable to remember what I just did that day/day before. Does anyone else experience something like this as part of that depression brain-fog?</P> <P>Thanks in advance</P> Sat, 23 Mar 2019 12:43:57 GMT Gigi991 2019-03-23T12:43:57Z https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/anxiety/memory-problems-with-bipolar-anxiety/m-p/400759#M30103 <P>Hi,</P> <P>This is my first post and am having experiences that are really starting to scare me.

My short term memory is atrocious. I believe it is the result of medication over the last 16 years but its a guess.</P> <P>I'm almost in the habit of writing things down especially shopping lists, using my mobile phone for alarms and its notebook.</P> <P>You aren't alone in this memory stuff.</P> <P>TonyWK</P> Sun, 24 Mar 2019 05:33:29 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/anxiety/memory-problems-with-bipolar-anxiety/m-p/400760#M30104 white knight 2019-03-24T05:33:29Z
