hiThanks for choosing healthcare magicwith age memory gradually decrease. U have bipolar for last 26 years. Even long duration of mental illness cause increase cognitive distortion. U can take Vit E and Statins. it would slow down deterioration. In medicine u can also used Donepezil or mementine it would help. Rest discuss with ur psychiatrist.Thanks
