Does anyone obsess over their memory issues?

I have moments where my short term memory is gone. I will be doing homework and will struggle to find the right words (that used to come so easily). I can't articulate my thoughts.

And then, I obsess over it, and it makes everything so much worse. "Why can't I think of words? I'll never be able to write again. What if my thoigjt process is deteriorating? What is the cause of this?" It is endless and infuriating.

I am making an appointment with a therapist to discuss this and let's be honest, a ton of other fucking issues. But I desperately want to know if anyone else struggles with this. Particularly other artists who would rather die than have to give up their craft.
