Accck ... I've gone from being an achiever, highly organized and very on top of things to feeling like I'm in a haze, removed or detached from life around me, my mind is foggy, my memory is shot, and I've become absent-minded and forgetful.
When I do something as simple as taking my meds(!) and moments later I will panic that I didn't really take them because I literally have no recall of putting them in my mouth, and swallowing them with the water. Also I find myself forgetting to put things away after I've used them (I'm normally super neat and efficient).
I'm growing increasingly frustrated, unhappy and a bit mystified by this. Can anyone else relate to this kind of stuff? And is the meds or the depression or both that is causing it? (I'm on EffexorXR, Klonopin, Lamictal, Zyprexa)
Thanks for any words of wisdom or support.
