Memory Loss & Word Finding

I am seeing progressive memory loss and also word recall. Especially short term – what did I have for breakfast yesterday...huh?

What is really distressing is the word recall – I cant remember peoples names I know and especially things I need to know for work. I can see the term but I cant say it or I sit dumb as a board and cant even begin to access the information.

So dementia or anxiety...anyone else!!

Over time, continued strain on your body from routine stress may lead to serious health problems which includes depression, anxiety disorder, and other mental health issues.   The concept that lifetime stressors could trigger the development of the disease, or at least facilitate the leap from mild cognitive impairment to full-blown dementia, has gained momentum in recent years, and researchers are starting to devote more resources to exploring the relationship more fully. This is a question for your Dr.  If feels to me if stress is the problem, either way,  you would want to treat the anxiety/stress issues in order to decrease you word recall. Kindly, Kitt

I am out all the time -just cant remember where....
