Does or can depersonalization/anxiety cause memory problems? i feel very forgetful today. like my mind is overloading. also foggy/blurred vision? is it normal with anxiety? bad depersonalization.

Absolutely because: we commonly avoid/suppress ideas/memory which we feel to be unpleasant; a defensive mechanism. Yet, avoiding unpleasant ideas & memories largely guarantees that we do not find; figure out solutions.Thus it becomes extremely important to find someone, or several, worthy of your trust who can help you both open up & find solutions which make sense, work & help you improve your life & successes.

Memory problems: Depersonalization is a trauma symptom, and it and other anxiety symptoms can certainly cause memory problems. If you have effective therapy,strongly recommend a therapist trained in EMDR, these trauma symptoms and memory problems can be resolved. Also seeing a physician for safe medications to manage mood can really help return memory to normal. Don't give up-the brain is not broken!

Anxiety can cause: memory problems. Too much anxiety interferes w/memory and too little makes us unmotivated. Brain fog from cognitive overload. I hope you are seeing a mental health professional for psychotherapy, not medication alone. Peace and good health.

Yes.: When your mind is preoccupied with danger, if functions less efficiently in other ways.

Therapy?: Have you yet tried any form of psychotherapy? Typically, the optimal combination of things to treat emotional issues such as anxiety or depression is medication (which, on your best day, is supposed to take the edge off symptoms) but the real gruntwork takes place in psychotherapist's consulting room.

Meds, diseases: Medications or diseases may cause several complaints. You should obtain a good physical exam by your general medical provider. If your vision is blurry in both eyes it is less likely to be an eye problem. Again, it is best to have a good general physical exam.

Anxiety: I understand your discomfort. Mind being overloaded, foggy, blurred vision, and being very forgetful today are likely due to anxiety. There can be other reasons for memory problems such as Alcoholism. Depersonalization is persistent and recurrent experiences of feeling detached as if one is an outside observer of mind or body.

Memory : anxiety does definitely cause memory problems. The racing thoughts can effect short term memory struggles.
