Hi dear.
I understand your concern.
It is not memory loss.
It is forgetfulness due to inability to concentrate.
Inability to concentrate is key feature of stress and depression.
If you feel so then need to break from work.
Stress free work.
Lifestyle modifications like exercise, meditations, enjoy hobbies and music will help.
Condition can be treated with anxiolytic like etizolam and if depression would persist then antidepressant like SSRI will help.
I hope i have answered your query.
Feel free to ask.
Happy to help you.
Thank you.
Get well soon.

Dear Mr Fayyaz Hafeez,
I can understand the distress that you must be in. Due to problematic situations in our life, it is common to be stressed. When we are stressed, we are not able to focus and concentrate which results in increasing forgetfulness.
I suggest that you should consult a psychiatrist in order to get evaluated for clinical depression. Depression will respond to anti-depressant medications like escitalopram.
In addition, you should start exercising daily. It will help you relax and feel better. Discussing your problems with some one or writing diary on a daily basis also help relieve the stress and feel better.
I do hope I was able to help you out with your query.
Best wishes,
Dr. Sunil Gupta
