Hello everyone!
Forgive me if this has already been posted/talked about, but I thought it might be interesting to bring up. Some days, and more recently than not, I find myself having difficulty remembering something that someone just told me. For example, my Mom might ask me to grab the glass of water on the table. I'll answer "Okay, just a minute" and almost instantly forget what I was supposed to do, because I waited and did something really quick first (like wash my hands or gaze out a window). It will often times come to the point where someone will say, "Did you go and do 'such and such' like I asked?" and that's when I remember!
Also, I find that sometimes when I am having a conversation, I'll will go to say something and almost immediately, I don't remember what I was going to say. It can get so bad that I will open my mouth to speak and close it, because I don't know why I opened my mouth to speak. To be honest, it can either be annoying or hilarious, depending on the conversation.
However, my long term memory seems to be perfectly fine. I can pretty much remember things (unless I try to remember them when I'll really wiped out or if I'm forcing myself to remember).
Anyway, my question is...
What are your symptoms concerning your short term and long term memory? Do you have any problems with either or both or none?
God bless!
