I Forget Things Easily: Should I Be Worried About This Condition? by AdamsAbubakar(m): 7:31am On Jun 03, 2020
I tend to forget where I keep my stuff easily, and it's really annoying. I may do something right now and forget it seconds later. Ironically, I remember things like names of people, what people said and the faces of people easily and accurately. I can still remember the surnames and names of my ex-classmates in secondary school perfectly, and the names and surnames of 202 people in my class at the University level.

My forgetfulness, however, petrifies me a lot as I'm 22 years old. What could be wrong? Should I be worried or it's normal at such an age?

Mods please help me push it to the FP let me get replies from the good people of NL. smiley

You're suffering from attention deficiency syndrome.
It's called ADHD for short. You're not remembering because you do things on impulse, without thinking. You're hyper, always full of activity. It's not your fault but caused by some chemical imbalances in your brain and you're not alone , many have it undiagnosed .

In my honest opinion, I think it isn't normal.
Might be dementia, what do I know?

I'm in the same boat with you OP.
As a kid, I can never forget where I keep my things as I easily replay it like a video in my head.
I topped my class all through secondary school although I seem to forget little details that made my classmates then wonder how I managed to top them in class if I can't recall some little events.


It worsened in the university, On a particular night, I went to the hostel toilet with my lamp and forgot it there after using the toilet. On getting to the room, I remembered that I had left my lamp there so I took my roommates lamp to aid me see so I could pick up my lamp.

Reaching the toilet, I forgot what I came to do and ended up leaving my roommate's lamp there too! . On entering the room, friends that were together in the room asked where the lamp was. That was when It struck me that I left 2 lamps in the toilet with a period of about 10-15 mins. They were amazed, laughed and we joked about it.


Also, there was a time( I think in my year 2 or 3) I was completely blank for about 20 minutes in an examination hall yes 20 mins! I couldn't write anything. It wasn't due to fear, I completely forgot.
I graduated without having a single carryover.


At a time I thought it must be a spiritual attack.

I'm seriously interested in knowing what could have caused this kind of condition really.

I have problem with remembering date and names of people but I can remember events of 20 years ago vividly. I narrated something that happened to me when I was like 2yrs to my mum one day and she was amazed. She was backing me then.

I think It’s quite normal if you find it difficult to wrap your head around numbers, not everybody can deal with it

Absolute shocker!

For an individual who actively remembers the full name and faces of over 200 individuals I'd say you're doing well, i guess you have difficulties remembering things kept in the short term.

Try to take your time while completing tasks and be mentally aware at all times of the fact that you have difficulty remembering things kept in the short term memory.

Take supplements and see a doctor, this is most important.

The problems u av is called oppentunium adsenslatus.... It is called by sumtin called lamentianusia esculiatiatus.


The only way to cure this is to find a Runs girl (use michat or codedruns or tinder) with over 20 years experience to give u a perfect BJ of your life... After ur first cum, ur life will b back to normal..

If it doesn't work,

Then give your life to Christ...... gringringringringringringrin
