Memory Issues
A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭

I already have short-term memory loss from Langerhans cell Histiocytosis, but since my diagnosis last week, my memory has really be slipping. Any suggestions to help with memory issues?

Write things down. If you feel it's important than write it down. That's what I do before I go into an ECT treatment. If I think it's something I want to remember and be able to share with others then I make sure I have it some place I can look at and remember. I hope this helps.

I deal with it too! I feel some of that comes from depression, as well as the medications themselves. I would look at some natural supplements that are noted to boost memory. You probably should check with your dr. before adding anything else though, since I'm sure they're trying to regulate several health conditions at one time. Try to relax and destress your mind wherever you can. Memory issues get worse when your mind is on overload. I am a firm believer in white noise. If you haven't tried it yet, I highly recommend it. Most any site that streams music has it available. Shout out if you have questions. Rest well, my friend.....

I write things down. Between the depression and meds, my memory is awful.

No, I dont. I'm usually good about taking vitamins. I'll give Omega-3 a try.
