memory problame s

Hi Caren,

It is said that people with Bipolar can have memory problems. They can forget simple little things like what they are saying or what they were going to do next and even things like appointments, etc. Someone with Bipolar cam have trouble with short and long term memory, think things through at subdued speeds, and have difficulty thinking outside that so-called box.

You can probably talk to your doctor about this. They might be able to recommend something to help boost your memory a bit.

I too forget little things sometimes.

I can't remember if you were the one who is taking topomax? This is a definite symptom of topomax if you are on that medication. If not, it's probably possible that it could be cause by another med as well. Hope your doctor has some answers for you. Good luck!
