Does anyone suffer from memory loss?

Postby mittinana » Mon Apr 16, 2012 8:31 pm

Hi,

I've just been through a major panic crisis, and though I myself don't notice it, my friends and family tell me my memory is, to say the very least, weak. Supposedly I have people repeat the same thing to me four or five times before I begin to register the general idea. Does anybody else suffer with this side effect from panic crisis?

Not so much short term memory, but I've been known to lose entire chunks of my life during panic episodes and it can take weeks to figure out where I am in reference to time and space. I'm never sure if it's the adrenaline that's making me forget, or if the confusion is causing the panic.

What you describe sounds fairly normal, for panic disorder.
