Have you had any luck with this? I have the exact same issue and would love to hear if you know anything new? im scared i might have a brain tumor or something...
I just thought of something, i believe memory is made of 2 parts, how you create a memory and how you retrieve that memory when you want it.i am not sure which part if not both is not working. so I think you should definitely go to a doctor.
I agree. I think you need to get this checked out. This isn't normal forgetfulness. Even with depression. So yeah I think it would be good you see a doctor. Also I think keeping a diary is a good idea too. So when you do forget you can reread those things. Still this needs to be checked out because this is serious. You only remember a few weeks. Something is wrong.
This sounds to me like something unrelated to depression,a little forgetfullness happens with depression sometimes but not like you describe I think you need to see a doc and get this checked out.Lily
Have you, ask family as i know you wont remember, any kind of trauma? during childhood or at any time during your life. Any kind of trauma such as abuse of any kind, a major accident, bullying. As trauma can be linked with memory issues, so can depression, so can brain injuries or a neurological conditions even ECT treatments. I would go to your doctor as this it sounds serious and it is not normal at all. You can't life not knowing and not remembering. I think keeping a diary is a good idea too, so good on you.
I hope that helps.
