My memory is poor. I blame my multiple concussions.

I’m getting worried about my memory. I’ve been compensating by using my phone to remember everything. Reminders, alarms, etc.

I have an elderly relative who is in their 80s and they’re having severe memory issues now. It’s got me worried about my own memory.

I blame my poor memory on the same @TheCanuk . A brain injury, plus multiple concussions from seizuring. It’s frustrating trying to hold on to a train of thought

Long-term seems okay knock on wood— it’s the short-term I seem to have issues with.

Like today, I had to go get the boi some dog food.

Left the house, forgot my wallet,

Grabbed it but forgot my keys.

Grabbed those, and forgot my phone.

:sweat_smile:

I hear you there. I fear I’m a prime candidate for early dementia. And my memory is already in the shitter

I forget sometimes so I try and use my alarm on my phone for important things, but I nearly always leave my flat then I think uh-oh I forgot my meds so I go back for them, & on the odd occasion I can’t take them until the next dose and once or twice I have gone a whole day without them and started getting withdrawals (panicky, anxious, fearful) these are my warning signs.

I am fortunate enough to have good memory. When my symptoms show up and get bad I have some issues with memory though.

Music is great for memory, im listening to it for 24/7-365. You remember every melody, part of lyrics, drops, voices, noices just everything. Doctor said it feels promising that i remember things like yesterday what happened over 15 years ago but it leaded to nothing, but music has go with me through my whole life time :slight_smile: So i think my memory is pretty well.

I think that I have a good memory compared to 5-10 years ago. I’m not certain it qualifies as anything other than medium though. I remember odd things but, were I to read an article, I wouldn’t recall as much as I’d like.

My memory is good and on meds I don’t have inner dialogue so I don’t think about the past anymore

I am grumpy because I forgot a comma integral to the structure of the last sentence I used. Yep, memory is not what it used to be.

I sometimes get angry or happy over something but 5 minutes later forget what that was. I forget why I got angry or happy. My mind just wanders like that. Im not a fan of it but it happens
