    I take lithium and have been for years. When I first started taking it, I tried to tell Dr that it was affecting memory because I noticed it very shortly after I started taking it. Both reading comprehension and short term memory affected. Thank you for asking question and for the other answer. I am not the only one I know that has had this side effect with Lithium. Have tried many things to improve memory and nothing does. I have settled with it because nothing else worked to stabilize me. My life is good today after many years hard work to get here and I try not to be too hard on myself about the limitation. Actually I really just full speed ahead and sometimes it hinders me but most of the time I can work around it without embarrassing myself too bad. My close friends and family know about it and love me anyways. Also use paper. Organized list. a system. Also has taught me how precious the now is. This very moment...
