I remember everything. I have an excellent memory. Sometimes its torture because then I dwell on stuff.

Yup. This has been my biggest....grievance since getting on consistent medication. I'm afraid I may just have to deal since a lot of the meds do this to your memory. I heard doing little mind games (word puzzles, crosswords) can help though. Also I'm aware now that I have a bad memory, so I work harder to remember certain things.

I have issues with memory. Hubby and I were in the store buying stuff to make macaroni and cheese. He said we needed the pasta for it two seconds earlier and I forgot.

My memory is awful. I introduce myself to people whom I've already met,I'm told things I can't remember, I can see a movie a hundred times and it's always like seeing it for the first time.

My memory is really bad as well. Thinking a lot really helps, like when I take orders at work and cram numbers for the store. You just need to give your brain a little extra exercise I think. Actually, I think I'm going to go read a book right now. :D

Oh yeah! There goes that memory problem again. VITAMINS! Vitamins and eating healthy is a great way to improve your memory! There are lots of supplements and combinations of things that will help improve your memory. Read some books and look it up. You'll be surprised! As I said in my I QUIT thread, its more important for people who have Bipolar to be healthy. It helps with EVERYTHING.

My memory seems to be getting steadily worse, and it's scaring the crap out of me. The other day at work it had me in tears of frustration because I completely didn't remember a conversation I had with someone. It wasn't as if I remembered after I was reminded about it. It was as if it never happened.

I'm going to be going through training next month to learn a whole new computer system for work that will affect my whole job, and with the way my memory is, I don't know how in the world I'm gonna make it. It terrifies me.

My memory is not too bad. I can remember most things except for things like addresses and phone numbers.

I think because the meds I am on are not really known for cognitive deficits in moderate doses. I am also on a vitamin regimen. I take vitamin C, vitamin B complex, and 3000 mg of Omega-3 daily.

I have a very bad memory. I forget conversations I had and usually things that happen one day to the next. I rarely remember what I had for dinner last night. Things are quite a blur, I think its the meds.

I have the rentention of a gnat and thats not an exageration. Some of it is med based in cause and some of it is due to physical issues. I can literally stand in the kitchen with the coffee cup in my hnad for 10 minutes before I remember wtf I am in there to do

I hate this too! I have even driven into town and had to drive around for a while because I couldn't remember why I was going to town. When someone interupts me I usually forget what I was saying. I have learned to just not even try to remember cus I look dumb.

I get like that but it seems to be getting better over time. What with the Omega-3 and flax oil.. also my other vities.. D-3 , B complex etc etc.. I think the impact of PTSD flashbacks / BP hallucinations and all the fear and stress that goes with it did some damage to my brain cells.. memory cells... not sure.

Our brains are this big network that gets eroded in areas. or blocked.. and I ramble i know lol... but I think of this a lot. I worry about my memory sometimes still thought. My mom is in a nursing home for alzheimer's patients :( Damn that makes me nervous. My uncle had it too. Their sister.. my aunt has bp.

my memory is horrible. there's just missing pieces of my life. things i should remember i don't. im so afraid im going to forget something really important one day like forget my kids somewhere. i dont know its just a horrible feeling.
