Suggest Remedy For Forgetfulness And Lack Of Focus
I tend to forget things and misplace my personal items and also day dream too much. My mother was diagnose with Bipolar disorder. I am just 18 years old and I hate it when it happens that I lose something or cannot focus because I think of so many things at once. What can it be?

Hi dear,
Thank you for your query.
what ever you describe about your self is suggestive of depressive disorder but without proper history and mental status examination it is difficult to diagnose.
As your mother is suffering from bipolar disorder so it might be possible to have hereditary psychiatric problem.
so need to evaluation is necessary.
Consult psychiatrist for it.
Thank you
