This exactly. It was worse when the pdoc had me on 300 mg. He lowered the dose but I still have the forgetfulness, sometimes to the point I worry I am losing my mind. I see the pdoc tomorrow, and I am asking him if I can take a different anti-depressant.

I was on a mix of Wellbutrin, Effexor, & Trazodone in grad school. I had to teach undergraduate microbiology labs a few times during the week. One day, I just lost my words completely, forgetting the names of very common micro lab equipment, and the students were filling me in so I would remember. At the time, I blamed the Effexor, but now I am thinking the Wellbutrin caused that since I am not on Effexor now and haven't been for years.
