Default Memory issues

Thank you Eva, that means a lot, i suppose memory loss is in my family to a degree but it was never a huge problem, it was mainly just getting old and what not so no dementia or anything like that tg, it must be an awful thing for families to cope with, God bless them, thanks again hun Sinéad xxxx

your question
excellent
yes to answer it
i do suffer from short term
out the window
but here is what i noticed
about myself
if someone should recall
the events that went on yesterday
i have difficulties
i know without a doubt it is
my meds
it is after my second set of meds
i warn my family and friends
it is amazing how it just COMPLETELY
robs me of my memory
now what i noticed
i can recall all that was lost
but if someone i have to remind me
it all comes back

another thing
Lexapro a psychotherapist had me on
took me to very very dark places
"i" decided i wanted to come
off of it "it" was replaced Prozac
as it interfered with my Tamoxifen
a drug for the cancer my oncologist
put me on for seven years interfered
with the Tamoxifen
so,

as i pay close attention to everything
that goes into my mouth
i will tell you this for certain
as i was weaned off Lexapro
the super dark thoughts were
gone

you are on to something

if i remember correctly
i believe there is memory loss in the family
apologies if i'm off mark
if i am correct genes have a say so

don't you give up
if you gut is talking
you pay close attention
and jot things down

i wish you well
never to sway from the
strength we have
we just don't know it yet
it is there
that gut feeling
it is there for a reason
trust in God
trust your instinct
be well
i began using sticky
note pads

sending love to you and family
