I totally agree with wildflower. Im a 34 year old mother of two and i still forget my own name half the time! Go easy on yourself and do realize these negative self defeating thoughts are one big brain trick. I got that advice from here and it is the best i ever got.
Now when im depressed or overwhelmed and start being down on myself i stop it in its tracks and realize bipolar is being mean to me today

I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning, I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
