I can relate ~ That thought used to scare the heck out of me!! What brought me comfort, I can see now in retrospect, is that thoughts like these are very common with panic disorder. I now have PTSD and don't have any of those fears anymore. I do become frustrated with myself for my crummy memory, but that isn't the same in my experience.

You can assure yourself that as you gain control over your panic, your memory will improve & you'll have less on your mind, decreasing the forgetfulness. Are you working with a T? If not, I recommend that you do ASAP, to gain some techniques to help yourself work through your fears as well as understand how the anxiety began.

You should be checked out by a general doctor first, to rule out possible physical causes first though. Once physical causes are ruled out, then go in to see a T. 1.) Diagnosis and 2.) Treatment.

I wish you the very best! Gentle hugs to you....
