I've became so forgetful. Talking and forgetting what I was talking about, or sitting something down and forgetting where I set it

Yes, but mostly when I'm not calm. I only noticed it this year.

While it’s totally possible there’s a bunch of things that could be causing it, definitely look into it more and talk to your doctor! Especially if it suddenly developed. Best of luck! 💕

I have experienced this but I thought it was a side affect of a new medication I was put on. Now I'm really wondering. 🤔

Yes! And it feels like my brain is swollen and has an almost hot feeling. It can last for several days. I struggle to remember what day it is, and other memory issues. I tend to isolate myself when I’m having an episode. Seems like stress and overwhelm, or overdoing it can trigger an episode. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’m currently in the midst of one, and have dr. appts scheduled…hoping to find out a cause. 🤞🏼
