> Just wondering something. I keep feeling like I'm getting dumber my the minute. I read posts here and I am completely confused and lost as to their content and vocabulary. I just don't seem to "get it" Is this a symptom of depression--Steadily Decreasing I.Q?


Does depression make you stupid?

Of course it does, you dummy~!

Seriously - it's like the others said. Sometimes it's a symptom/part of depression. Other times, it's med induced.

I think it was prozac that killed my short term memory while I was taking it - I couldn't finish a train of thought, or remember what I just came into the room to get, or to do.

Other meds have helped me regain my concentration and ability to focus (the loss of which was not related to meds - part of the initial problem).

Once again, unfortunately, no absolutes w/this stuff. (YMMV) Good luck.
