For information that is! If I read it, hear it or see it, I remember but, I do forget to eat. Think I did something but was really just thinking about it. Forget what year or month it is. Never know the day of the week! Ask me about last week and I really don't know anything but, ask me for some information I learned last week I can tell you all about it and where I was when I got that info!
Bipolar disorder really makes people have bad memory? Hmm.

yeah im only on 100mg of lamictal and 450mg of lithium. but within the last two weeks my memory has gone from know everything to not remembering what i said within minutes of when i said it. im starting to feel like a stoner. i like the meds im on they make me feel better kind of. the downer effect makes me a little depressed but i can't deal with that. the memory thing i can't deal with. i know klonopin can cause memory lost if you take it too much but i only take that when i need it. which is about once every couple of days.
