Struggling to Remember Things with Depression

Yes for sure and I haven’t been on depression meds most of my life and if I have been on them it was for a short time. I did some research but specifically for bipolar and it can lead to brain damage by reducing the size of gray matter. I would assume depression would as well. There are ways to improve gray matter so hopefully it doesn’t degenerate. My memory is bad. I typically only remember snippets. My friends or family will ask me about something and half the time I’m like I don’t remember or I wasn’t there. They explain the whole memory apparently with me in it and I’m just dumbfounded because I don’t remember. Super frustrating!

I thought I was the only one who experienced this! It’s scary sometimes, other times it’s just kind of blurry/foggy

Yeah then I feel bad when I see my sister wear a shirt and I ask when she got it. She thinks I'm joking because I gave it to her I just forgot
