A member asked:
What is the cause of a bad attention span and unable to remember things being told
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Multiple possible: There are many possibilities for difficulty with attention and remembering. A couple include anxiety and various anxiety disorders, and also add. Probably you want to see your family physician first for a general health exam, but seeing a psychiatrist for an evaluation will help discern what's causing this difficulty in you. A helpful treatment plan can then be created. Good luck to you!
