Does anyone else experience a loss of short-term memory often due to your worrying? I experience this quite a bit and sometimes it just seems as if I try to remember something, my head is just a big clutter and the information gets lost somewhere. I remember reading somewhere that stress/anxiety effects memories.

Hi Thursdy,

One thing that can happen is that we don't take things in because we are too busy being anxious about being anxious. For me, this wasn't so much about memory loss as about paying attention.

Some people call it "Being on another planet" and I think that all the illnesses we deal with on this board are like that to some extent.

I hope it get easier for you, Myzen
