Very forgetful for the last two weeks

I literally lose the entire memory of what I’m talking about 5 to 10 seconds after I start it. It just leaves bit by bit until I have no idea what I was talking about. I’d ask my stepdad a question then forget what the question was 10 seconds later and having no idea what he’s talking about.

Really scary. I read today though that Olanzapine can cause memory loss, and it started getting worse at around the time I was started on it. I have an appointment in 5 days but I don’t know what to do about it. I guess I’ll just explain the forgetfulness and trust whatever her decision is.

Meds can do that. But if you can switch meds, another one might not do it.

That would freak me out too. Hopefully your psychiatrist will be able to help.
