Hi bilal.wani, Issues : 28 year old ,1 year duration, loosing  memory,not able to remember the names of  friends most of the times,frustrated, Neurologist consulted. I Need to know 1. family h/o memory loss ? 2. h/o head injury ? 3. h/o seizure ? 4. h/o substance use (eg> Alcohol) ? If your answer to all these questions are No Also your Vit B12 level is normal Then Probably it is Pseudo dementia due to underlying Depression Do not get panic ! Meet your nearest Psychiatrist discuss about your Life events, stress at various domains in your life. He may prescribe you Antidepressant & advise psychotherapy. Then you will be alright. Best wishes
