Hi welcome to HCM.
Cognitive slowing can be very commonly associated with anxiety and depression states.This can present with mental slowing,early tiredness,and disturbances with newly formed memories.Drugs like escitalopram can be used to control the depression and anxiety states.Memory can be improved with the help of citecholine syrup.Regular physical activity can increase the feel good hormones in the body.Stress management can produce better results.Consult your doctor for further queries.
Thank you
