My next thought is if you are really stressed, yeah, that could be it too.
I've had memory probs since 2010 when I had a major psychotic break. Since then it has just gotten worse. They're just ****ing finally listening to me now.

In other news BCBS has made nuvigil and provigil tier 4 meds. I don't have $80 to just throw around to stay awake all day. I found out though at costco you can get 60 200 mg provigil for $56. I emailed pdoc to see if he'd send in a prescription for that. When the pharmacist told me the cost of the nuvigil yesterday i wanted to tell her it'd be cheaper to buy a ****ing coffee and caffeine pills every day. I don't understand why BCBS would make a generic a tier 4 med. I feel for the people that have narcolepsy and depend on the med.
