Ok, so usually my anxiety is heart related. :( Recently, I have started forgetting a lot of things! I do hair for a living and while I was with a customer yesterday, I went to dry her hair and couldn't find my comb. I searched through my drawer and the top of my station, only to realize it was in my left hand the whole time. :-l I felt like I was losing my mind! Then, last night I was getting ready for bed and couldn't find my slippers. Again, I searched and searched, only to realize they were already on my feet. What the heck is going on with me?!?! I feel like I will end up forgetting something that is important rather than something stupid. Anxiety? Medication side effects? Something else? I've been on citalopram for years with a dosage increase about 4 months ago. Also xanax as needed, which recently has been almost every day. Thoughts??

I haven't done anything like that. It's just like I'm losing my memory or something. Stupid things that make me fear bigger or more important things.

Could this be side effects from the dosage increase or something else?
