Hi all,

I am really having some problems with my memory...........mostly short term. (I know.............how can I remember that I'm having trouble remembering?) :D

I am wondering if any of you experience memory problems. I need to know, because, dear God, I'm praying that it is my new med, wellbutrin, that is the problem.

But, I also desperately need to know if it happens with OCD.

Thanks,
sobs

i have a hard time remembering things short term. i can remember the important stuff like lunch dates DRs appt. and plans. but i cant remember something a person may have told me 1 hr ago if it wasnt important. like if my wife was telling me something about a new shirt she bought or something and then asks me about it 15min later i cant remember what she said.. but that could just be me being a male.

How did you know what all of us females were thinking?!?!?!? :D

Thank you very much for your response. That sounds like what I am experiencing. Maybe I have too much testosterone.... :D

Aww........come on......you know I can't let this pass. ;)

Sincerely..........thank you very much. Hope more folks will help out, and give me some more feedback.

Hi,

Could be the medication. If you're over forty, it could be middle age, too.
I think the meds take away a lot of short term memory. I have to take two antidepressants and some tranqs, and I notice that my short term memory is really suffering. If I am introduced to someone, I often forget their name immediately.
Hate it, makes me feel very stupid, which I'm not, and really bothers me.
I take Prozac and a small amount of Xanax, Ativan for sleep.
Anyone have an idea if this combination can cause this kind of memory loss?

Thanks, and good luck to you,

Seaturtle
