In my personal life... I do not have experience with narcissistic abuse.
And at the same time I am aware of the effects and that it would affect your self-esteem would be "normal" (I hate that word) and this in turn worrying about the future and what that holds.
I also notice that you are taking positive steps with WORKSKIL.
Just to answer (?) your question about abuse and memory loss... there are a number of articles on the Internet on this topic. So there are two avenues you can take (1) the first is to read the articles and work out what to do next or (2) talk with your psychologist about this?
You can easily do a google search on
narcissistic abuse and memory loss
and there is nothing wrong (?) with educating yourself. The issue I have here relates to any (self-)diagnosis without professional support (and you have that).
Lastly, and more generally speaking, many things in life require use or they can be forgotten. I was once learning Greek but if you ask me to say to the alphabet I would really struggle. I am sure that when you start doing something (WORKSKIL) things will come back, even if slowly. I also had brain fog when more seriously depressed.
