good observation.

 

i have have your symptoms too....even though i've been in remission for 3 years now i still am forgetful...i refer to it as "short term memory loss" first you think its some joke a cartoon character had and then you realize its not so unreal after all.

 

i forget things i've done just seconds ago...and i forget  words and can't finish sentences.

 

my last check with my neurologist he told me to just get out more and i think it worked. I told him bout my depressions and why i suspected of having them and he told me to find a hobby....anything that would shift your attention on something else.

 

sometimes we tend to panic on little changes that we're not used to especially if we have gone through an illness as grave as ttp, we tend to assume that everything else is a symptom of something. But most times its not, its just our biological body thats telling us we are undergoing change.

 

so what did he told me when i told him bout my short term memory loss? he told me to read more often. Probably learn a new song to exercise my memory to words again. when you had your ttp did you ever had a hard time reading words? like they dont mean anything? I had that its as if my brain shuts down or something. Maybe we forget because when our brain shuts down that time we were sick and got better now, maybe our brains are still adjusting to the new images we're feeding it.

 

 

but i will raise your question re bipolar disease i could be a possibility you know?! i'll post it here if anything comes up.
