Scared I'm going to forget who I am

[Lindsey14]

I'm really foggy and I'm extremely out of touch with myself. I'm really scared. Could this be my anxiety?

This sounds very much like anxiety.

Who do you want to be, anxiety aside?

We are all growing and changing throughout our lives and things do happen which change our outlook, views, goals etc. Don’t be scared of who you are becoming - you are still you.

It sounds like the anxiety is consuming you and making you lose touch with your life a little bit. You are still here, you are still you, you’re just having a really tough time.

I've been exactly where you are. And I know that it doesnt feel like it, but it does get better. Long story short, you won't! It is indeed anxiety. Just keep swimming and try to not think about it....I know its exhausting. It was always when I started a new medication I found it happened.

[Lindsey14 in reply to dbeck128]

I haven't had new meds for awhile

Do you have someone around you, that can help - family or friends?

It sounds like Anxiety or you have to much going on at this time.

Sad to say old age can be a problem, my memory is shot and I start a tranche of scans next week. If at all possible try not going down the pathway of lost thoughts and memories. My memory concerns culminate in not remembering what I did yesterday.

We have been watching the Edinburgh Military Tattoo tonight and it will be away tomorrow morning. I now use silly phrases to remember things I did the day before and also before bed I look at books full of pictures, that I leave on my seat till morning so I have a head start on the day before

I hope you feel better soon. I feel like that too sometimes. I've heard that doing something, anything, can make you feel better. I like to cook something I really like, maybe something you havent had in a long time. It makes me feel more grounded.
