I am male 24 years of age and currently working for a bpo as customer service So generally have night shift n get proper time to sleep in the morning hours. I have good physic n has no other diseases. But, have been suffering from memory problems since I was 18 years of age when I was in class 12th. I couldn t remember important subjects even I try to by heart it I will forget after 1-2 hours, that why I failed in exams n somehow copied passed graduation. I have difficulty to remember new learnt things for example concept, ideas, events, data, conversations n cant think n form opinions etc. I cannot recall my past life events correctly in a pattern that means all thought are messed up n sometimes false memory comes to recall past life.Every time I try to make conversation with persons they have no idea what I mean as I cannot explain properly, long pauses in middle, extreme slow jumping from one idea to another, often mind goes blank n forget important things to mention, thought process is not clear n organised as I have limited words n ideas. This happens when I am responding to anyone it takes hell lot of time for me to comprehend, understand, think what to say n respond by that time one other person will jump to other topic or go away. I am not able to plan n organise my work taking longer time to complete simple tasks that exceeds the deadline which makes me under performer. so not getting any salary hike n growth even after working for 3 years. Friends make fun of me by noticing this change, so I am avoiding gathering in persons, social networking like facebook not giving my phone number to any one. Even I am handsome with nice personality I have no girl friends till date because girls go away for me for sluggish behaviour, lack of conversations n I am not a rich man also.My family is well aware of this but will not do anything as they consider it social stigma n will always try to console me everything is normal. I decided to tell this to my sister who is married came for 2 weeks to our place from different state n she understood me n agreed to go for check up in Apollo hospital orissa, Bhubaneswar. We met a phycologists who asked few questions about my academic performances, medical history of myself n family, social connectivity n my mood it was her assumption that I have mild depression n advised me to take medicines for 2 months. once the course was over I didn t have any improvement, so I tried to contact the hospital but doctor was transferred to different state n I didn t want to visit same or different hospitals because they charge is very high, one appointment rs500 in private good ones n governments are worst. Please advise me how should I go about this? Thank you for your time and patience for understanding my problem. Your response is highly awaited and thank you in advance for replying.

Hi, thanks for the query & I would like to appreciate your detailed & precise narration of your set of problems. Brief answer is YES YOUR PROBLEMS ARE CURABLE. Detailed answer is based on your account is suggestive of social anxiety disorder i.e. excessive fears of unfavorable scrutiny by seniors, superiors, significant people along with low self esteem, excessive self doubts & prominent anxiety symptoms which are manifesting in your case in form of difficulty concentrating, inability to talk with people properly & effectively. Good news is social anxiety is treatable with a combination of medications by name SSRI type drugs & cognitive behavior therapy (CBT). SSRI will take care of your depressive & anxiety symptoms while CBT techniques like role play, guided imagery, exposure & response prevention etc. which can be taught by a Psychiatrist/Psychologist.
