Hi Aimee,
When was the last time you had your meds evaluated/changed. What are you taking and now long have you been taking it? Are you seeing a therapist along with taking the meds? Oftentimes the memory and concentration issue can be a side effect of the meds but they can also be from stress and anxiety. Most of us with anxiety have noticed the inability to focus at times.
Please tell us a bit more there is plenty of help in this forum

I agree with Jerz; ensure you talk to your doctor at regular intervals about medications. I am back on meds and sometimes I feel like they inhibit my ability to concentrate although this can be a double edged sword. When I first went on Zoloft 3 years ago, I thought that it was doing more harm, than good, but after awhile people around me noticed a difference. I was actually more focused on tasks while I was on it for about a year.
I am now back on it, but as Jerz said, anxiety can take your mind off of things and affect one's ability to concentrate.
I can totally relate. I can't seem to concentrate on anything.
