Anyone else have memory problems??? I have to write stuff down a lot. It is terrible. My long term memory is OK. I can remember stuff from way back when.

Sure do have memory problems.....hum.....Mariel?

Although jokes aside, I do indeed have memory probs which I put down to Seroquel and Lamictal. Well I hope they are responsible.

One thing I always have a problem with and that is remmebering the name of the person here I am responding too. Some are very difficult I need to go back and do bit of copying and pasting.

I just hope that we can remember just where we put our memories!

Good hunting,

I have severe short term memory problems and have had this issue ever since I started taking meds for bipolar 3 years ago. I compensate for this by writing everything down on my PDA or computer and write "to do" lists. Without either of them, I would be a lost cause.

I've had severe short-term memory loss since starting meds back in 2005. I can't even finish a sentence without forgetting what at least one word was that I was trying to say.

I have a hard time keeping track of who has what going on here. It's very embarassing and I hate it. I can read all day, but in the end I don't remember who said what.

Short term memory whats that, Like Neon drugs for bipolar no memory. To do list and struggling are how I make it. Long term memory no problem.
