Overview
Aging, depression and medications (both prescription and non-prescription) are risk factors for amnesia.
Risk Factors
- A psychologically traumatic incident in the past can increase chances of developing dissociative amnesia (psychogenic amnesia).[1]
- Head trauma increases the risk of post traumatic amnesia.[2]
- Sexual repression in childhood and cultural norms can cause infantile/childhood amnesia in adults.[3]
- Prolonged trauma and childhood sexual abuse can increase risk of dissociative fugue.
- Sleep deprivation
- Head trauma, depression, hypertension,Down syndrome and family history can increase the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease.[4]
