Using martial arts to help with mood disturbances

Slight concern: My memory has been getting worse recently. I keep forgetting names. Names of people I know well. I go into rooms and forget why I came in. I suffer from a kind of, I don't know, temporary aphasia(?) where I can't understand what people are saying. What the hell is going on, does anybody know? I wasn't told about this when I was diagnosed with paranoid psychosis.

 

You're not taking any medication like clonazepam or chlorpromazine are you? I used to support people with mental health issues and what you're describing was a common side effect of these drugs.

 

I'm taking aripiprazole, trade name abilify. Also, occasionally I have zopiclone to help me sleep at night. I sometimes use diazepam and I've been on prozac in the past.

 

Damn man :/ I refuse to take medication for my anxiety and depression now, the last ones I was on messed me up more than anything in my life, it was worse than being suicidal. Never been so happy to want to die Hope you work out what's going on and manage to fix it.

 

thats not normal ? it happens to me. i thought stress/overthinking/overload of information.

Im going to the gym and taking taekwondo for self defense, clearing my mind, and for the self confidence. I feel so much better in my life and in my self.
