Ive been through the roughest cycling of hypo/depression this year and my memory is suffered. Long term, I still feel like its May. I have hardly any memory of whats happened or what I have been up to this summer.
This week, when I realised it was friday I got scared. I though we were on Tuesday still. I've literally lost 3/4 days this week.
I thought forgetting almost every conversation I engage in was bad, but now I literally feel like my life is dissolving away.
Are memory problems this severe a common thing in bipolar disorder? After a bout of depression I have been feeling fine/great the past week and a half but i'm suspecting i'm on the way up this week after irritabiliy/distractibility symptoms, an increase in productivity and the usual visual peripheral hallucinations have been getting worse. I'm just wondering if the worsening in memory is a warning sign.
