Yes, after 20+ years with depression, my memory isn't good at all. But I didnt' know that my depression was the cause until 4 years ago. When I was told by a therapist that it happens after extensive psychiatric episodes. I just learn to deal with it. Tell people, A Lot, that I don't remember and move on. I had to take a part time job and left a full time job because of my bad memory. I had a boyfriend tell me I was spaced out all the time. I can just look vacant sometimes. And not remember a thing that happened at that moment. I do think this is due to my illness but also the various medications over the years.
