I am 22 years old and have recently in the past year have lost alot of my memory. Its all memory long term and short term. I also loose my train of thought and struggle to finish sentences sometimes as i forget what im saying. I forget what i do with my keys, money, ect but remeber passwords for things. I struggle to remeber my schooling or my childhood. i cant remeber conversations iv had. I have been on anti depresents since i was 16 but its only been this year i have really been having trouble with my memory.
I think, you have pseudo-dementia due to depression. You are facing this problem due to lack of concentration. In that case, carry on with antidepressant and that would help you to maintain memory and control depressive symptoms. You can try some stimulant like modafinil that would help you. Better to consult about it with your psychiatrist. In case, you need further help, you can ask.
Thanks
