There is a lot of my life that I can't remember. I've been bipolar 2 all my life. I believe bipolar messes with my memory big time, especially when I'm hypomanic or manic. Right now my biggest problem is too many meds messing up my short term memory. I take 4 different psych meds, and my brain is mush most of the time. I also take 2 meds for high blood pressure, 1 for high cholesterol, and 3 inhalers for asthma. No one can tell me what drug interactions I may have from taking so many meds. I take it 1 day at a time, and luckily my boyfriend has a very good memory to help me out when needed.
