I am on Lamictal and Risperidone and in a depression. I have noticed substantial memory loss as well as anhedonia.

I am not sure how much the memory loss is due to the medicine and how much is due to bipolar. However, I am wondering if any of you feel minimum cognition loss, if any, and if so what are you taking?

Who feels like their normal smart selves?

I was diagnosed in November of this year and was put on Lamictal
and Seroquel. I've been experiencing the same symptoms you are
having. My short term memory and congnition hasn't been that great
for a long time now though. I'm pretty sure a lot of it is due to the
Bipolar. The meds, for me, seem to make it worse.

I hope the meds really start working for you soon! The depression is
the worst part.. Here's to hoping, right?!
