to me i feel like the worst part is the short term memory issue   on medication i can recall information i picked up a few moments ago i can retain this information for some time even   off medication i can barely remember a word just spoken to me   makes me look incompetent i play it off as being a ditzy blonde but it really bothers me that im so uncertain of everything i hear around me and cant remember my own actions  did i do that what was i doing what did they say
