Poor speaking skills
Hello doctor, I am home alone for the past five years due to depression. Previously when I was at school, I had a good command over languages. But now I lost all my vocabularies and I'm currently in a very pathetic situation when it comes to speaking skills. I forgot languages. I find it very difficult to speak due to this. Could depression cause these problems? Please help me. Thank you.

If someone has a back problem they take medication plus the ones who follow the exercises advised by the physiotherapist will recover faster. Similarly in depression it is helpful to follow up with a doctor for medication regularly plus get regular counselling ad try to do 2-3 pleasant things daily. Yes Depression can cause memory problems but they are usually reversible. It could be also due to loss of confidence due to depression. It is all reversible.
