Did you notice the memory problems after going up to 275mg or at the lower doses? Reason is I'm taking it now. I don't know what to tell you. I think these drugs can mess up memory. My memory has been bad 7 years off prozac. I wouldn't beat myself up about it. You thought you were doing the right thing at the time. Maybe you will find something that helps. I've heard Racetam drugs can help, like piracetam. Never tried myself though. Its good that you are seeing a neuorlogist as well. Also I wonder like the other posters if you are taking another drug that could currently causing this problem. Are you taking any other mood stabilizers?
