Memory

[Chaynes84]

So can anyone help me or could at least tell me you guys go through it . So of I'm new to this I have been dealing with my anxiety for almost 7yrs and now I have this health anxiety now. So sometmeshe when I'm about to set ,your mind to do something I easily forget within seconds. This bothers me because now in my mind I'm thinking I'm having memory loss, now I can remember things that happen in my childhood but soon as I go to finna do or jot something I forget what it was I was about to do. Do anyone suffer from this? Please reach out

From time to time during periods of stress or sometimes for no reason at all I’ll randomly forget things. I think everyone’s experienced the feeling of walking into a room to do something and forgetting what you went in there for. It’s pretty normal, but depending on how often it happens it could be linked to stress.

No problem, I would say that it’s probably linked to stress. I usually forget a lot of stuff when I’m in a stressful situation or panic attack. I think it’s my mind’s way of self defense. Hard to feel self conscious about an awkward date if you forget most of it I guess.

It happens from time to time with me and if I start thinking about it, it can become a little scary. One thing I have learned about memory issues is that most memory loss that is serious is not noticed by you, but those around you. If you are concerned with memory loss, most likely it is an age related or stress related issue and not medical.
