Memory loss, no concentration, away with the fairies.....

[gldavis447]

Is it normal to lose your memory with anxiety? I have trouble concentrating most days and feel a lot of the time my mind just wanders. Remembering something I done the day before or even been asked to do something Ive forgotten within minutes. My partner tells me stuff which I forget all the time and he gets frustrated because he thinks I dont listen. I do listen, I just get so forgetful :(. Is this normal ???

It must b normal cuz I get it too I could stand there for ten minutes wondering what I'm meant to b doing or thinking if your really worried then seek medical advice from your doctor to just reassure ur self my husband gets frustrated too cuz he can say he said something the other day and I have no recollection of what he said because I just can't remember I know I'm not making much sense but I think everyone who suffers with anxiety gets it because our brain and our mind is trying to do too much in one go we forget keep your chin up chick x

Hi Andypandy,

Sorry for the late reply, its been a tough few days for me :(. I'm not actually on any medication at the moment, I am seeing the doctor next week so going to see what she suggests. Have you spoken to your doctor about your medication? I hope things get easier for you xx
