I’m 16 and I feel like I forget EVERYTHING, like it’s too the point where people think I’m unintelligent, and they point out we’ve had the same conversation before. It kills me
To be honest, I believe that my lack of mindfulness plays a huge role in my forgetfulness. I normally do things without mentally connecting to my action. For example, if I go somewhere in the house then just rest my phone on the table, I might forget to pick it up from there. However if in my mind I acknowledge that I'm resting my phone on that table I stand a better chance at remembering to pick it up. I hope I make sense here.
@@sbcaliforniakitty Sigh, oh my. Now normally when I keep forgetting where I just laid something I get frustrated at times and I have said "I think I have a mental disorder"- to myself. Reading your comment hurts but it's probably the truth😔. I will try to improve my attention by being more mindful of my actions, but if it gets worse I will seek psychiatric help. Nevertheless may you continue to live and strive in this world despite your diagnosis.
@@preciousadorable7416 Not OP, but I’m sorry that that comment has had that affect on you! I have ADHD as well and this happens to me several times a day, but it is not something that only happens to people with ADHD. I think you’re right in your assessment that it’s related to a lack of presence in the moment, which also overlaps with ADHD, but again, is not necessarily the root of that kind of event. I’m sure there could be many other reasons why this happens, and not all of them point to mental illness.
One thing NOT mentioned is dehydration. Sadly people don't even realise they are dehydrated (normally because they don't want to "keep going to the toilet") but this has a huge effect on thought processes, mood, and memory.
@@Lyonessi Severe dehydration can cause confusion, drowsiness, memory loss, and other symptoms that look like dementia. It's important to stay hydrated (aim for 6-8 drinks per day). Be particularly vigilant if you take diuretics or laxatives or suffer from diabetes, high blood sugar, or diarrhea. Additional studies indicate that dehydration can accelerate cognitive decline in people with dementia. Decreased water levels in cells can cause proteins to misfold and prevent the clearance of these toxic proteins, causing them to build up in the brain. Many other studies, with subjects ranging from children to older adults, have shown that even mild dehydration can impair mood, memory, and brain performance.
My life-long depression has definitely effected my memory. For example, I worked for nearly 20 years in a tire factory and its like it never happened. I don't have much memory of it all. Secondly, my older son moved out of home 4 years ago and sometimes I forget he even exists or existed at all. This is not new. I have only a few childhood memories. Mainly surrounding food and school.
I can’t recommend writing your life down enough (or another way of recording your life if reading/writing is a challenge, like video diaries, or drawing a picture a day, tracking mood, etc.). ADHD causes so many different memory challenges for me, both short term and long term, and nothing has helped me remember events of my life better than keeping a paper planner and a long-hand writing journal/scrapbook. I flip through them every so often, and can recall my life a lot easier because it’s saturated with different cues in my journals.
As someone who is learning disabled I can really identify with this! I have to say I feel blessed to have a computer in my back pocket to help me and keep me organized.

I’ve suffered from this since i was 17 and I’m 22 now. It has single handedly effected every aspect of my life. To the point where i can barely do my job properly. I used to have excellent memory then all of a sudden it disappeared. I think its due to possible drug use but i have been off everything since it happened. If any of you have experienced something similar please respond
I'm actually coming here because of how much my forgetfulness is affecting my job. I also stopped smoking marijuana a couple months ago. I did smoke for a while back when I was 14 but stopped and started back up again at 21. I'm still 21 and I wonder if smoking at such a young age could account for this
I'm 21 but I've never smoked much weed (or consumed much alcohol for that matter) but I'm also extremely forgetful. I not only forget birthdays or stuff like that but I also sometimes forget names of coworkers I've known for years (don't even get me started with names of fictional characters), I randomly forget words and names of my favorite songs, movies or books, I forget important appointments, I forget paying my bills in time, I forget things I'm supposed to do at work, it's just slowly but steadily fucking up my life...
I’m 22 never did no drugs or drinking and my memory is so bad to that i cant remember something i did and it could’ve just happened this is terrible I hope we all get through this
Hi all, none recreational weed or other substance user, non smoker & a very blue moon drinker (a glass of bubbly @ Xmas for instance). Unsure which Countries you’re all based but there’s a product called “Souvenaid” you add to a glass or mix in water it allegedly helps slow memory loss. Available in Australia & advertised on TV. Might go by a different name in different countries. Hope this info helps. Best wishes from Adelaide; South Australia🇦🇺💐
Hey, I don't know if this is still an on going issue for you, but if you are still looking for ways to improve your memory, try Lions Mane Mushrooms, or try doing little mental exercises to burn brain calories, one that helps me out is writing everyday.
I dealt with SERVE STRESS from Anxiety all of 2022 From January to December and now in 2023 there are times where I too also struggle a little with short-term memory but now I’m getting therapy and eating Vitamins like Vitamin C,B6 and B12 or Vitamin A through foods like oranges,green smoothies and even Rasin Bran (Whole Wheat Grains) and I’m doing a lot better.

I am 21 and I've always had amazing memory it was one of the things other people used to compliment me on, i coukd remember other peoples phone number locks after seeing them once but ever since the start of this year i went through a lot of stress and i started noticing my memory took a huge hit. I struggle to speak sometimes because I cant remember certain basic words that I am thinking of. I sometimes wont be able to recall an entire event that happened, complete loss of that event until I am reminded of a very specific thing that happened (like the clothes I was wearing or a picture of that day) Idk of this is an actual concern, because my family does have a few older people who suffered with alzhiemers or if I'm overhtinking it and stressibg myself out
I am 24 and I am having the same problem sometimes i feel like crying sometimes cause i can't remember even a simple thing...i hate arguing with someone especially if its something personal cause I know i won't recall events from the past.... it's scary and hurtful
@@alostrovibes2244 I feel you, I really suggest getting it checked out. Don't stress yourself out over it I've noticed the more stressed or hurt I am the worse it gets, start taking Omega-3 and vitamin B12 too. If you wanna talk about it to each we can I know how frustrating it is I can't even tell if it's genuinely something serious and my parents aren't taking me to get it checked out but honestly trying to think about it less and not let yourself get stressed about forgetting certain things helps a lot. I suggest going out more and making sure you take the supplements do things that make you happy and exercise your brain like reading or painting/drawing. Good luck friend I wish you the best
I feel you. Im 14 and I used have this almost photographic memory and I never struggled with my studies. I remember i used to absorb every bit of information without much effort but I went through a lot of stress in 2021 and 2022 and my whole life turned upside down and my memory got really bad. Even though it has gotten better over the past few months because I've been trying to build better habits but sometimes I just wanna die because it seems like everything is not gonna be the same. Pardon me if there is any grammatical errors. Englsih is not my first langauge
@@fatimaebrahimi3834 youre 14 and speak english as ur 2nd language better than me and im 30 with english as my first.. impressive. and why would u wanna die cos of this this is nothing. life gets much harder than this
I'm in my early 20s and cant even remember when I wrote down 5 seconds ago... daily struggles with anxiety and stress is making me miserable, can't even function in my job. It feels like its too late to fix my problems. Its so anoying having to ask the same question 3 times looking like a fool.
@@waellawzi6775 i rather not say i want to for get them no i didnt murder anyone just about all the relationships i had.I was a really dumb young person
@@xThePHINIXx i hope u too recover from it.We can talk about it maybe we can find something and talk about things that we have in common that will help us to atleast dealt with it in some way .i hope u got what I want to say.
I have a question about memory loss and childhood abuse. I can't remember a lot of my childhood and forgot about some of my family members also. I know from trauma your brain can protect you from certain things. Should people be worried about that loss from childhood that never returned or just take it as is?
Most people i know that have memory loss from childhood and don’t remember things about their childhood also have general trouble with their memory and it influences their mental health to this day. so i do believe seeking out a professional to help resolve the issues from the past and the daily consequences you probably face because of them would be good
The subconscious isn't able to question why, its function is to keep you safe and move forward. Forgetting trauma is self protection. The point is now what happened but what can we do about it now.
I can't understand why i forget simple words while speaking. the word is in my head, i can picture ir or name it in different language, but i have to really dig in my mind to remember the word and it takes few seconds every time. It freaks me out because it happens all the time.
I have this same issue. That was my biggest reason for watching this video. I’m searching for words in my head on a daily. When having a conversation, it’s embarrassing. My eye contact is poor cause I roll my eyes away when searching for my word. Then by time I find it I may forget where I was going with my story. It use to frustrate me. Now I just give up and move on if we can’t jog my memory. I’m only 41. 😬
Im still very Young and am struggling with severe memory loss, thank you so much! Im still very Young and am struggling with severe memory loss, thank you so much! Im still very Young and am struggling with severe memory loss, thank you so much!
I’ve worked in IT for 25 years, two years ago I started having issues finding things on the screen, like really bad, I then got sick with digestive issues and lost 30% of my weight, it’s taken me two years to get back to a normal weight. However I now have issues with comprehension and still finding things on a screen. It’s impacted my work, I have issues with finding words and understanding things. I’m going to get tested as I feel like I’m losing my skills, it’s scary as I feel I might have to stop working in my field and pick something simple, it’s humbling and pretty embarrassing as I used to be quick and easily do my work. I can’t remember people’s names and discussions, yet I remember something’s really well. I’m 45
Same here. I am in IT for couple of years and I am i my 20s and I have so much problem with my memory. IT is stressfull job....anyway I feel like I am losing my skils also, feeling ashamed, stupid, dump all at once
At your age, forgetfulness can be caused by many things that have nothing to do with Alzheimer's or dementia. In most cases, at 28 years old, it's usually associate to normal memory loss. However, in order to truly get to the bottom of your concerns, you should start by considering your daily habits and routines as a possible cause for what you are experiencing. At the risk of coming off as crude, if you drink alcohol on a regular basis, this routine could cause tremendous lapses in memory. Alcohol has a tendency of effecting memory tremendously, so if you drink, consider this as a cause. In fact, experiencing losses in time and memory does not only occur while one is drinking, it can also extend well beyond the time of consumption. If you don't drink, then it could be something as simple as your diet. "Junk" food, if you consume it, also has the ability to effect memory loss. Junk food is filled with, well, junk, so when you put junk that into your body, it can do a lot of damage; especially where memory is concerned. Consuming large quantities of sugar could have a great effect on memory.... Things like cakes, sodas, fast food in general, will definitely make a dent in one's ability to process memories properly. I am going through my own memory issues right now, which I am pretty sure are associated to dementia; only because it runs heavily in my family. This is another thing you should look into, whether Alzheimer's or dementia runs in your family; or if it doesn't. If it does, then that would be something else to consider. If it doesn't, then this should put your mind a ease because it would mean that your memory concerns are more than likely associated with something that you can control. Lastly, I would recommend that you look at the kinds of memory issues you are having in the first place. If you're forgetting why you walked into a room, after you've walked into the room, and memory issues along those lines, this could just be normal memory lapses. For me, my memory losses are a bit more significant.... At almost 58 years old, I am forgetting the names of people who I already know, and having the occasional black out where I forget how I got somewhere, or why I am even there. I will eventually remember, but sometimes it can take several minute to get my memory back. I am also doing other concerning things like leaving my house without a coat, when it's very cold and putting on my shoes (and tying them) before I put on my pants. These things have concerned me enough that I am now seeking help, especially since they are getting worse and because I also have a family history of dementia. Please keep in mind that I am almost 58 years old, so there is a 30 year difference in our ages. However, if you are experiencing anything like what I am experiencing, then you should definitely see a doctor. I hope this helps.

I have adhd and was diagnosed at a young age, I have been on medication for years but when I forget to take it I know because it’s like dementia. I’ve gotten lost in places I have been over 100 times. I’ve asked the same question, 4 times in 20 minutes, like my short term memory is gone. Before I got on medication, I had no idea how bad it was. Adhd can seriously be debilitating if untreated. Side note, sometimes even on medication I still have these moments they are just not as frequent. And thank god because living like that is debilitating.
Microwave radiation. All the vaccines they gave us as well. Nano aluminum in the air. Disappointing, but true. Not that you'll "believe" there is a hard biological source, regardless.
Holy Crap!! Past year I’ve changed-ALOT! As someone who has always lived w/ADHD (& live in $$ SO CALI), & LOSING MY JOB DUE TO COVID... I CANT REMEMBER SH*T ANYMORE DUE TO STRESS!! Argh!!!! 😹
I was on meth for 6 years and I feel like it messed up my memory a bit but also I been dealing with a lot of stress and anxiety so that makes it worse.
I have several TBI’s, BPD, now mold toxicity has brought me to a complete standstill. Extreme mental fog, I ca not Renee why I left a room or why I’m outside. This is different from before, it seems like when I try to recall something, it’s like it never existed. On a farm with a narcissist and I must admit it’s spooky here now. I get nothing but gaslighting and untruths from her. If it wasn’t for my dog here I don’t think I would be alive today.
Im 19 and i struggle with my memory so so much, it impacts every part of my life and makes things harder for me. I try to write things down, and i guess in a way it feel as if trying to remember things makes it harder on myself because of the way I talk myself down in my head like “how did u forget something like that, what were u thinking, why can’t u just remember” it’s really exhausting. I forget things I did the day before, I forget appointments, I’ll make reminders for things and I’ll forget I made them, I forget where I put things down. It’s really confronting when someone in my life asks me a question like -do you remember this thing that we did the other day or a place we went and im scrambling my head just trying to grasp anything relating to what they’re saying and I just can’t remember so I have to act like I do, I feel ashamed almost. The scary part is that if someone wanted to they could put a memory in my head that isn’t real and that didn’t happen bc of my lack of memory, like I just go with it cus I’m thinking - yeah that probably happened I wouldn’t remember it myself anyways, so I would just go with it. I’ll also get made fun of some times by those around me cus they’ll notice that I misplace things a lot and that im forgetful so I can’t even hide it. In school I struggled so much because a big part of school is memorizing things so although my teachers told me I was smart I couldn’t preform well bc of my memory. Im young I shouldn’t be having these issues and I’m worried for myself it’s always affected my life but I’ve been noticing it more recently that I’m not living with my family anyone, I don’t have them to remind me about things and keep me on track a lot so :/ I have to rely on myself, my notes app, reminders and papers I write things down on but still then I misplace those 😂 or forget to come back to them. So sad !

I'm 24 yo, and I don't know if mine is mental or physical but it sure getting worse, people would get mad at me if I forget (at my internship) and I Swear I even write things down but the problem I FORGET THAT I WROTE THEM DOWN I look several times at number digits to be able to type them Or once I have it memorize, if im cut off, I forget what I remembered instantly I forget people's names, I forget even having a dtae with them planned, I forget things on the oven, I forget my phone (even tho I use it non-stop), I forget my bags, my keys language I forget what I was doing I forget my own clothes that I have them untill someone reminds me of the piece of garment that I once wore on a particular day and I'm like "do I have that piece of clothes?" ... Sigh I'm tired, it's a huge insecurity of mine now
i have a really bad memory to the point that i’m ashamed of how bad i am at remembering stupid simple things and i’m showing all those signs of forgetfulness at 20. is this my peak 😭😭😭😭
Don't worry about it many people face this type of problem. As one of my friends was also facing this memory loss problem then he tried herbal Ginkgo Biloba supplement for the last 4 months and now he is seeing some improvement. He is taking Roncuvita Ginkgo Biloba herbal capsule if you want you may also try it. It is really effective.
My grandmother had dementia and my mother has it also.... At 57 years old, I am now in a place where I am forgetting more and more everyday. And, it is much more than walking into a room and forgetting why I went in there in the first place... I am looking at people who I have known and not remembering their names - this happens quite a bit. I am also forgetting basic life things like washing my hands and putting on my pants before my shoes. Sometimes, it feels like I have blacked out and I have to take a moment to get my bearings in order to know where I am. I am also becoming more tired and less active. I only do things that will effect my day to day, but other activities are at zero right now. I am at the point where it is now beginning to concern me; especially given my family history. I am not sure if this is normal or something far more concerning. Every on-line memory or dementia test seems to indicate that I am going through something normal for my age. I don't believe that this is the case. I am not sure what to do.

@yankee2666 I made this comment over a year ago, and in that year, I have become more and more forgetful. This is no longer an issue for me, and it no longer frustrates me. I simply don't care about this situation anymore. I've learned to cope and to take many deep breaths. Overall, I have simply made my peace with all of it, and I am now at the point where I am making arrangements for my life in the coming years. I really don't know how many years I have left, but at some point, I will forget it all. I have also come to realize that there is something pleasant in what is coming. Yes, I realize that I will forget many good memories, but I also realize that I will forget many unpleasant ones as well. And, at last count, I've had more bad ones than good ones. Thanks for the comment.
I'll put something down and need it an hour later but my mind is completely blank. I remember having it and putting it down but after that? Blank completely. Not a single ounce of memory on where it is I put it.
I can't never remember what ADHD stands for. Like, never. Even after reading it. And that's just an example of my life. Sometimes I want to comment on a video I find interesting just to see my comment is there ALREADY 😢😢😢. THIS IS REALLY BAD 😞😞😞
A dear friend of mine is always losing bank cards and she is now a senior citizen (every month going to bank to get a new card - instead of online),she constantly loses her keys, cash, iPhones and she has always been like this. She does not have help from her family who at one time helped her with keys. She does not seem to learn from her mistakes. Her house is filthy and she can not get repairman to go in and fix things. When she was a kid she had a maid and a nanny. She is now on a fixed income and I am constantly shocked at the amount of important items she loses and she loses them often. I wonder if she is doing this as a distraction so that she does not have to deal with feelings or issues. Maybe this is some form of self-sabotage. Her filthy house may be a way to keep others out of her life. I can not speak to her about her hoarding issues as this makes angry no matter how kind or gentle I try to be. I do not want to lose her as a friend and I worry about her. She is fiercely independent.
I use my phone to absorb the informative content the majority of the time. Everywhere you go, someone is trying to advertise something, and sell us their course, program, etc. It's incredibly stressful. 😢
I never sleep well i never dream so no rem sleep I find it very surprising when I have a dream it's a very rare occurrence I could go months without dreaming i have adhd which does help me remember things that I'm interested in but once I stop fixating on that interest that too fades away ive been depressed for a few years to the point where I dont go outside of my house with the exeption of grocerys i forget any conversations arguments events when i wake up the next day i still remember the emotions i felt but they are dulled less intense for example I would have an argument with someone and then go to bed when I wake up I remember having an argument with them but I don't really remember what I said to them or what they said to me I can feel vague emotions of the argument if the argument has something that pertains to my future then I will most likely remember some of it but not most of it but if it's one of those pointless arguments they will remember basically nothing which is a good thing and a bad thing good that I can start off my day without feeling that bad but I can't say the same for the other person involved it's hard to keep promises if you forget all the time what you promised now then I'm done sharing random information about myself to strangers on the internet ima gonna go to sleep now and probably forget most of what I wrote and do what I do everyday ignore my problems for I am the queen of passive aggressive pessimism
Is there anyway you could do a video on dp/dr disorder. I’ve been struggling with it since a was a teenager and it’s not talked about very often, even thought it’s a very scary, and life altering dissociative disorder
i'm 16 y/o and i'm really struggling currently with some type of memory loss, i'm forgetting words i used to know, i'm writing things backwards, i forget the meaning of things even though they have been told to me multiple times throughout the course of the day or week, and even with in a span of a couple of MINUTES. things that i used to know and be familiar with are now something i need need to be reminded of. patterns and routines, i recently got myself in trouble at school bc i have this class, 8th period on what we call an A day,an d i had completely forgotten what i had i was so sure i checked all my possibilities and i never found it, now you might think, "why didn't you ask someone in the office like an administrator?", well my anxiety is pretty bad and i was scared to for whatever reason so i ended up skipping that class for a month. i got lunch detention then got in trouble bc i kept missing my lunch detentions and was told i was refusing to go when that was not the case at all! i kept forgetting and they would remind me AFTER lunch, meaning i would have to make it up the next day, and the cycle would continue. i go to therapy for several reasons like my mental illnesses, Anxiety, Severe Depression, PTSD, and ADHD, its just a handful. and i often forget what i am supposed to bring up to my therapist because even though something has been bothering me and it is worth mentioning during our meetings i will not remember that i had something to talk about so we end up circling back to the same issues that we have previously discussed even though i'm going through way more and new things keep popping up. i Have a REALLY hard time remembering names. My dad has a hard time remembering names to coincidentally, i have always had thins problem to a small degree but i feel throughout the years it is way worse and much more of a problem. If i have to give important information i wont remember who is worth mentioning i will just refer to the person as my relationship statues with them, such as, "my therapist", "my (insert subject) teacher", "my psychiatrist", "my friends from (whenever/however i met them)". i always forget what i am talking about mid sentence and i can never recover and just shut down, OR i will say one thing multiple times throughout a week, day, or minute and not realize it until it is pointed out and even then might continue to make the same mistake. i have a hard time learning new things, i have always had and it caused me to be a bad student since i started going to school, i was labeled a problem child and a trouble maker when i only acted out bc of thing i was going through at home and the fact that i was really struggling but people would only tell me to ask my parents for help (which was not an option for me as i have gained a lot of trauma bc of it), or study, or just pay attention. no one understood the i COULD NOT. or at least that it was really hard. i have a lot of deep rooted trauma associated with school and bc of it i stopped doing my homework in 6th grade, stopped informing my parents about how i was doing in school, stopped telling them about important meetings the school wanted to have, stopped trying in school, etc. and i stopped trying to learn overall bc even though i knew i could if i just had the right help, i wasn't getting it and came to the conclusion that i would never receive it. so i stopped trying and now i have missed years worth of important and valuable information regarding basic education. i felt stupid, i still do bc i do not know most of the things i should, i am a junior but i only got this far bc of sympathy from school/teachers and summer school. i have went to summer school almost every year of my school life since is was in 1st grade. Now i'm acting like i have dementia. i don't know what to do and it is really scaring me and messing with my anxiety, i feel like this might cause some sort of panic attack in me as i feel it is getting to me a lot more. i'm having suicidal thoughts bc of this and self-harm urges. i need help truth be told. i cannot remember fucking anything, and forget fucking everything. i know i'm a year late but i just found this video.
its weird i can remember things academically like different math equation, new concept but when it comes to personal things like did i remember to turn on fan when cooking, forget food in the oven, what did someone just say to me two seconds ago during a casual conversation i completely forget
my memory problems have been bad for a while as i have ADHD but ever since ive been falling into my depressions(often on more of the severe side) my memory has gotten to pure hell. it feels like i cant make coherent thoughts and ill constantly forget what i was saying or thinking. the brain fog is crazy too, quite funky
this comment really reassured me because i’m 18 with depression and adhd. i’ve always had shit short term memory but these past few days it’s been worse. i’m a huge hypochondriac so i usually think of the worst case scenario health wise, and in this case it’s the fear of having alzheimer’s or another form of dementia. but this comment as well as the others on this video have reassured me a bit.
i’m 26 i haven’t had to apply math since 20 when i finished Calculus series in college. And now i can’t remember basic times tables and completely forgot Calculus. Took Spanish in college 3 courses and passed with B’s in 2019. I forgot it all and still only really know the basic spanish i learned back in middle school. I can follow a new movie but months later it might be hard for me to describe the plot after. I’ll read a book and skip 3 days, come back and realize i can’t recall some of the parts i read early in the book of just pages before.
You explained everything I’m going through though, and I’m only 16 rn. I hope since you’re of age you can soon get therapy or some sort of professional advice for it 🥹

I’m embarrassed. Yesterday in class a sub asked me if I knew someone and I said yes because they had the same last name as me and I couldn’t remember. So I showed a picture of my mom and she was like nah I’m thinking of someone else. And now everyone knows that I made a mistake.. I don’t even remember directions to my relatives house.
i believe i got ADHD but i dont recall my memory was ever bad. my first major stressed i knew i had memory loss. i felt it right away along with rapid grey hair. both my parent dont get their grey hair very late. my mom got little grey hair even after 60 years old. sometime even when i type really fast, my conversation is different than my thoughts or some words is different than the word i intended to type. sometime i talk about something, i forget what im about to say. i have the plan on what to say but it just disappear then i have a habit to talk about something associate to it. its getting scary for me. i eat a lot of sweet too. dose that impact it? i feel like it dose but i think the stressed i had in the past really affected my mind today. i thought about taking supplement for brain health but those pill is usually for older people that are 50 years old plus.
I am watching this 2 years later just because i am so much concerned about my memory. I seem to be forgetting everything. It's making it hard to focus on my clinical work as it requires me to have critical thinking and evaluation everyday. I need help now.
I'm really struggling with this at the moment, I keep forgetting things that my girlfriend is doing on each day and she thinks I don't listen to her at all except I do. It's making her upset and I don't know what to do😭
I am 22, I used to have good memory and everybody complements me for that, I used to find interest any topics, and tasks, after the covid it become worse now I can't even remember names, faces and What I just did few days ago, now if I try to Imagine someones face that I know, and I can't see properly. I forget things, and sometimes I don't understand what I am doing, all the time my mind stays sad, if anyone have similar experience please let me know
Peaple told me I repeat my self over and over but I don't remember saying it before so I think there gaslighting me but tonight my daughter in Texas said to me mum did u know u repeat yourself over and over .I realised in not being gaslighted I had a growth found in neck .going for biopsy Monday MRI I will tell Dr about this problem
don't give up. you are still young and you can believe God for hilling. God created us can fix whatever a problem we have. call Jesus Christ.the saviour of our soul can as well hill our body.
My mum kinda forgets things like she had a chocolate from a box, then came back, my brother had one, and then she said, ‘oh you had 2’ but she forgot she had one
I don't know what my problem is. Honestly, with as long as I've been aware that I'm forgetful, I sometimes think it's some kind of cognitive misdevelop (I'm aware that I may have just made up my own word), or maybe the way I was raise caused my development to go one way, or I also wonder if it truly came later when I was an adolescent. I got into an accident when I was 11. I got a concussion, but that's the only injury that was discussed. But what happens with the area of the brain that experiences physical trauma? Does it fully heal, can it cause something to disconnect. I don't know how long I've been forgetful, I just know that I've always had a hard time retaining information. I can't remember names or faces. Long term memories are easier to access than short term. I repeat things, and misplace things. My husband speaks of memories that I can't reach. I will admit that our lives forever feel like constant chaos. Circumstances always feels out of our control, so when he brings up memories, it's like something that happens around a stressful time. And with that, to him it feels like insignificance to me, or I don't care, but that's the farthest from the truth. I can't multitask, so how am I supposed to remember something when it's forgotten. Same thing with the misplaced or forgotten things. When they're out of your mind when you don't need it, how do you just pull the memory out of thin air? I'm so slow at that. Remembering what I was doing in the current moment is becoming challenging as well. I joke to my husband, which I know I shouldn't, but I say, "don't be surprised if one day I'm diagnosed with dementia, because this forgetting thing is a whole trait of mine." Don't know where it came from, or how it stuck, but no matter how mindful I try to be, I can never get better at it.
In your experience have you noticed, or has anyone brought it to your attention, that their memory has started to fade while taking any statin medication? I have noticed.
I’m 18 and I struggle with forgetting things a lot to the point where I have to write down everything I want to do in the day before I forget and I’ll even forget I wrote them down. I recently noticed I’ve been asking the same questions over and over to my family… what to do now?
I'm in the same boat actually with the writing of things down because i keep forgetting, you'd want to see a proffesionist if memory loss is affecting your everyday life
I've always been a little forgetful, and it gets to a point where it gets embarrassing sometimes. I forget instructions, like if my sisters ask me to bring their things somewhere, or I get asked to do a small task, but if I don't do it right away, I would forget, and it's going to look like I ignored the request on purpose. More recently, my cousin has repeatedly told us that she is allergic to nuts, and in my excitement to make breakfast for her one day, I made oatmeal the way I always do it: with peanut butter. She forgave me easily, but I still feel very embarrassed that I forgot.
Ngl there was this one time when I was just tired tired anyway to be short I forgot what day it was or if I just slept the entire day and it was the next day 😂
A lot changed for me in the past year, mostly all positive but i ended up burning myself out on a great work opportunity. I feel like I haven't come back from that yet. I feel like I had better cognitive function when I was an alcoholic than I do now when I'm sober. I may know something but I can't recall it, or I confidently misremember things. It's becoming unbelievably frustrating.
lately people tell me stories about things i told them and things we done together but i can t remember shit, not even when they give great detail, but no problems with following conversations or distributive attention I do have problems with planing to do something, than i have a flash thought, and I forget all i have planned, but i know i wanted to do something and it takes me a while to remember what that thing is (usually simple stuff)
17 and I'm really concerned because I keep forgetting everything important these past few days and til now, I never had the chance to recall them. One instance was during my examination day. So, these are the things that I only remember, after getting into my classroom, I greeted our proctor (I was late - _- ), she called my surname and I gave her my exam permit then took my seat. We were taking physics that's why we prepared a cue card for formulas -we gave it to our tc for checking before the test- So, when I needed to take look at the card, I didn't bother for a second to ask my proctor about it (I was shy at first hehe because she wasn't our tc in physics) then she went outside for a second, so I asked my seatmate where'd they got their cue cards. She said, fron the proctor, and that's when I asked the proctor and wanna know what she told me? She said, "I gave it to you already, didn't I?" and there, I checked my bag and found I put it in there before I got to my seat. it's embarrassing af 😭
I notice that in the last few years, I started forgetting how to spell a lot of words which is really embarrassing. Need to check Google to be sure of the spelling. Then just recently, It's been difficult to retain information. I actually just started a new job and currently undergoing product and process training. It's been two weeks and I still keep forgetting important information which is very crucial to my job. I have to ask my trainer the same questions several times which is a waste of her time. I am 43 and I am afraid this is a start of a serious memory loss issue. There are even times that I would need to stare at the monitor for a few seconds to few minutes while thinking of the right words to use. If this continues I would need to leave my job(or I'll get fired) because I wouldn't be able to meet my employer's expectation. 😭😭😭
I think its stress thats causing my memories to fade a little, I usually lose small stuff like notes and especially money. 2 weeks ago I placed my money somewhere near my desk top and now I cant find it. I clearly remember putting it somewhere around there now it's gone, plz help me remember!
Clicked for stress. Seems performance goes down in groups. One new detail and forget review from half hour. Slow pace and if alone figure things out. How can one handle a job?
I can recall exact situations and conversations back to early childhood. It’s a type of verbal/visual eidetic memory but I can’t easily memorize written text. My dad and his brother had Alzheimer’s so I wonder if a person like myself could get it also and how it might manifest? Honestly I wouldn’t mind losing this ability since this type of thing is more of a curse then blessing. Any thoughts? Ps I’m 60 years old and no significant changes yet.
What is it like to be able to recall conversations you have with others? I really try to remember and recall dialogue but I usually only remember small parts of it. Is there a certain way you visualize a story being told that helps you remember it better?
@@Sanctification22 Excellent questions. Im not that thrilled having this “ability”. On the plus side i can recall in my head every note/lyric of every song ive ever heard but im not a gifted singer or musician so its kind of wasted on me. I dont have any techniques that I can share since it just happens. I was 25 or so before I realized I was way different from most others. Honestly I’ve developed ways of hiding it at times so i dont appear too freakish.
I have an ex who has started losing her memory when it comes to going to places she knows very well how to get to and from those places along with having the feeling people are coming into her house when she'd not at home and blaming me for hacking her phone and internet. Now they do act weird and shows unknown devices have connected to the wireless router but blames me cause I'm the closet to her.. is psychosis and memory loss hand in hand? How can I communicate with her that it wasn't me.
I have always had both long term/short term memory problems and the best way for me to describe it is that my memory is just like swiss cheese filled with holes
lol i forgot the dipper in the bathroom and my brother was mad at me. i think the issue was i was not mindful at what i do and worry about what people think of me
In addition to the other helpful tips in the vid, here is what helped me, personally, dramatically. I can't promise it will work for you because as the lady says there are different issues. Colloidal silver. Fish. Tea and coffee and decaf is okay. Celery. MCT and/or coconut oil. All backed by research. In addition, research shows a strong link between staying up late and dementia, especially as one gets older. To match circadian rhythms be in bed by 11 PM. Keep checking your urine ph. If it goes down you may get tired menially as well as physically. For me what works is a good solid 8 ph. Be sure never get to low blood sugar. Don't be hungry but keep little meals going, especially meat.
for your health, maybe cut out the silver bits? this is from webmd: "Colloidal silver has been used for infections, hay fever, skin conditions, and many other conditions, but there is no good scientific evidence to support any of its uses... It can be unsafe when taken by mouth, applied to the skin, or inhaled."
@@sachab6098 Webmd is very conservative in what they say. But the truth is that alternative health methods do not get funding for testing from places like Big Pharma. Years ago I had a sore throat. I tried colloidal silver spray. To my shock my tonsils, which had always been large, shrunk to so small a doctor asked if I had had them removed. Obviously I had an infection in them, for years, that the spray killed.
She briefly touches on how it goes both ways between parents and children, but I absolutely cannot stand the older generations that criticize and blame younger generations for being "addicted" to devices. If parents actually paid attention, interacted, and emotionally connected with their children, instead of just telling them to go outside more, or do something else but not do that something with them, then children automatically would use devices less. Maybe you have to implement more of a time restriction for teens (or maybe not, teens crave more independence from their parents naturally, and they deserve to have it within reason), but younger children are already instinctively wired to crave attention and comfort from their parents. It is the parents that provide the devices to their children to soothe them instead of soothing their children themselves, that have caused the lack of attention span and focus. I am more focused than ever when I play videogames because they were my emotional support growing up, they taught me how to problem solve, how to go on adventures, how to persevere when things got difficult, and even how to make decisions that would give me the desired outcome I wanted. I know technology was rapidly advancing while I was growing up, but the videogame consoles didn't cause my mental illness. The way I was raised did that, and videogame consoles helped me survive it. If it weren't videogames consoles, it'd probably have been television in the previous generation, books in the generation before that, literally anything that could've been used to escape reality. Fucking boomers just can't take responsibility for anything (and their parents can't take responsibility for Boomers, either). Hopefully more people in my generation learn to actually be good enough parents, and stop blaming the developing children that THEY are responsible to teach life skills, for their problems.

I’m 16 and I feel like I forget EVERYTHING, like it’s too the point where people think I’m unintelligent, and they point out we’ve had the same conversation before. It kills me
same here dude. it doesnt get better with age too. :( at least i haven't found the way to fix it yet

Same here. 😢
To be honest, I believe that my lack of mindfulness plays a huge role in my forgetfulness. I normally do things without mentally connecting to my action.
For example, if I go somewhere in the house then just rest my phone on the table, I might forget to pick it up from there. However if in my mind I acknowledge that I'm resting my phone on that table I stand a better chance at remembering to pick it up.
I hope I make sense here.
Same here 😩
So true
That’s called ADD! I know because I do this all the time & have ADHD
@@sbcaliforniakitty Sigh, oh my. Now normally when I keep forgetting where I just laid something I get frustrated at times and I have said "I think I have a mental disorder"- to myself. Reading your comment hurts but it's probably the truth😔. I will try to improve my attention by being more mindful of my actions, but if it gets worse I will seek psychiatric help.
Nevertheless may you continue to live and strive in this world despite your diagnosis.
@@preciousadorable7416 Not OP, but I’m sorry that that comment has had that affect on you! I have ADHD as well and this happens to me several times a day, but it is not something that only happens to people with ADHD. I think you’re right in your assessment that it’s related to a lack of presence in the moment, which also overlaps with ADHD, but again, is not necessarily the root of that kind of event. I’m sure there could be many other reasons why this happens, and not all of them point to mental illness.
One thing NOT mentioned is dehydration. Sadly people don't even realise they are dehydrated (normally because they don't want to "keep going to the toilet") but this has a huge effect on thought processes, mood, and memory.
Could you please elaborate on this, I have bladder issues and hate having to rush to the toilet so admittedly I don't drink as much as recommended.
@@Lyonessi Severe dehydration can cause confusion, drowsiness, memory loss, and other symptoms that look like dementia. It's important to stay hydrated (aim for 6-8 drinks per day). Be particularly vigilant if you take diuretics or laxatives or suffer from diabetes, high blood sugar, or diarrhea.
Additional studies indicate that dehydration can accelerate cognitive decline in people with dementia. Decreased water levels in cells can cause proteins to misfold and prevent the clearance of these toxic proteins, causing them to build up in the brain.
Many other studies, with subjects ranging from children to older adults, have shown that even mild dehydration can impair mood, memory, and brain performance.
@@combatwombat71 thanks for the reply. I want to find out more on this but I'm gonna start drinking more for at least a week and see what happens.
@@Lyonessi I try to drink 2 litres (half a gallon) a day which is a bit more than recommended but is necessary with the medication I'm on.
@@Lyonessi is there anybody in there
My life-long depression has definitely effected my memory. For example, I worked for nearly 20 years in a tire factory and its like it never happened. I don't have much memory of it all. Secondly, my older son moved out of home 4 years ago and sometimes I forget he even exists or existed at all. This is not new. I have only a few childhood memories. Mainly surrounding food and school.
I am sorry to hear that and I hope you are doing better now.
yeah depression both makes it feel like time is slower and like nothing happened at all because you forget what happened
I can’t recommend writing your life down enough (or another way of recording your life if reading/writing is a challenge, like video diaries, or drawing a picture a day, tracking mood, etc.). ADHD causes so many different memory challenges for me, both short term and long term, and nothing has helped me remember events of my life better than keeping a paper planner and a long-hand writing journal/scrapbook. I flip through them every so often, and can recall my life a lot easier because it’s saturated with different cues in my journals.
Thank you. I should do this bc I’ve been having this issue and it’s making me really upset lately
Same. But I kinda feel like the main character in Memento movie.
As someone who is learning disabled I can really identify with this! I have to say I feel blessed to have a computer in my back pocket to help me and keep me organized.

I’ve suffered from this since i was 17 and I’m 22 now. It has single handedly effected every aspect of my life. To the point where i can barely do my job properly. I used to have excellent memory then all of a sudden it disappeared. I think its due to possible drug use but i have been off everything since it happened. If any of you have experienced something similar please respond
I'm actually coming here because of how much my forgetfulness is affecting my job. I also stopped smoking marijuana a couple months ago. I did smoke for a while back when I was 14 but stopped and started back up again at 21. I'm still 21 and I wonder if smoking at such a young age could account for this
I'm 21 but I've never smoked much weed (or consumed much alcohol for that matter) but I'm also extremely forgetful. I not only forget birthdays or stuff like that but I also sometimes forget names of coworkers I've known for years (don't even get me started with names of fictional characters), I randomly forget words and names of my favorite songs, movies or books, I forget important appointments, I forget paying my bills in time, I forget things I'm supposed to do at work, it's just slowly but steadily fucking up my life...
Semen retention , meditation and yoga in the morning helped me brother , it’ll help you .
I’m 22 never did no drugs or drinking and my memory is so bad to that i cant remember something i did and it could’ve just happened this is terrible I hope we all get through this
Hi all, none recreational weed or other substance user, non smoker & a very blue moon drinker (a glass of bubbly @ Xmas for instance). Unsure which Countries you’re all based but there’s a product called “Souvenaid” you add to a glass or mix in water it allegedly helps slow memory loss. Available in Australia & advertised on TV. Might go by a different name in different countries. Hope this info helps. Best wishes from Adelaide; South Australia🇦🇺💐
It hurts to remember things, even important stuff. I can't think hard or at all. It's a PAIN, and I'm screaming internally. 😔

Hey, I don't know if this is still an on going issue for you, but if you are still looking for ways to improve your memory, try Lions Mane Mushrooms, or try doing little mental exercises to burn brain calories, one that helps me out is writing everyday.
I dealt with SERVE STRESS from Anxiety all of 2022 From January to December and now in 2023 there are times where I too also struggle a little with short-term memory but now I’m getting therapy and eating Vitamins like Vitamin C,B6 and B12 or Vitamin A through foods like oranges,green smoothies and even Rasin Bran (Whole Wheat Grains) and I’m doing a lot better.

I am 21 and I've always had amazing memory it was one of the things other people used to compliment me on, i coukd remember other peoples phone number locks after seeing them once but ever since the start of this year i went through a lot of stress and i started noticing my memory took a huge hit. I struggle to speak sometimes because I cant remember certain basic words that I am thinking of. I sometimes wont be able to recall an entire event that happened, complete loss of that event until I am reminded of a very specific thing that happened (like the clothes I was wearing or a picture of that day) Idk of this is an actual concern, because my family does have a few older people who suffered with alzhiemers or if I'm overhtinking it and stressibg myself out
I am 24 and I am having the same problem sometimes i feel like crying sometimes cause i can't remember even a simple thing...i hate arguing with someone especially if its something personal cause I know i won't recall events from the past.... it's scary and hurtful
@@alostrovibes2244 I feel you, I really suggest getting it checked out. Don't stress yourself out over it I've noticed the more stressed or hurt I am the worse it gets, start taking Omega-3 and vitamin B12 too. If you wanna talk about it to each we can I know how frustrating it is I can't even tell if it's genuinely something serious and my parents aren't taking me to get it checked out but honestly trying to think about it less and not let yourself get stressed about forgetting certain things helps a lot. I suggest going out more and making sure you take the supplements do things that make you happy and exercise your brain like reading or painting/drawing. Good luck friend I wish you the best

I have a question about memory loss and childhood abuse. I can't remember a lot of my childhood and forgot about some of my family members also. I know from trauma your brain can protect you from certain things. Should people be worried about that loss from childhood that never returned or just take it as is?
Most people i know that have memory loss from childhood and don’t remember things about their childhood also have general trouble with their memory and it influences their mental health to this day. so i do believe seeking out a professional to help resolve the issues from the past and the daily consequences you probably face because of them would be good
The subconscious isn't able to question why, its function is to keep you safe and move forward. Forgetting trauma is self protection.
The point is now what happened but what can we do about it now.

I’ve worked in IT for 25 years, two years ago I started having issues finding things on the screen, like really bad, I then got sick with digestive issues and lost 30% of my weight, it’s taken me two years to get back to a normal weight. However I now have issues with comprehension and still finding things on a screen. It’s impacted my work, I have issues with finding words and understanding things. I’m going to get tested as I feel like I’m losing my skills, it’s scary as I feel I might have to stop working in my field and pick something simple, it’s humbling and pretty embarrassing as I used to be quick and easily do my work. I can’t remember people’s names and discussions, yet I remember something’s really well. I’m 45

I am extremely forgetful and I am worried that one day I might get Alzheimer or dementia and I am only 28.
Same here. 28. Forgetting day before, hours before, maybe even a second before.
At your age, forgetfulness can be caused by many things that have nothing to do with Alzheimer's or dementia. In most cases, at 28 years old, it's usually associate to normal memory loss. However, in order to truly get to the bottom of your concerns, you should start by considering your daily habits and routines as a possible cause for what you are experiencing. At the risk of coming off as crude, if you drink alcohol on a regular basis, this routine could cause tremendous lapses in memory. Alcohol has a tendency of effecting memory tremendously, so if you drink, consider this as a cause. In fact, experiencing losses in time and memory does not only occur while one is drinking, it can also extend well beyond the time of consumption.
If you don't drink, then it could be something as simple as your diet. "Junk" food, if you consume it, also has the ability to effect memory loss. Junk food is filled with, well, junk, so when you put junk that into your body, it can do a lot of damage; especially where memory is concerned. Consuming large quantities of sugar could have a great effect on memory.... Things like cakes, sodas, fast food in general, will definitely make a dent in one's ability to process memories properly.
I am going through my own memory issues right now, which I am pretty sure are associated to dementia; only because it runs heavily in my family. This is another thing you should look into, whether Alzheimer's or dementia runs in your family; or if it doesn't. If it does, then that would be something else to consider. If it doesn't, then this should put your mind a ease because it would mean that your memory concerns are more than likely associated with something that you can control.
Lastly, I would recommend that you look at the kinds of memory issues you are having in the first place. If you're forgetting why you walked into a room, after you've walked into the room, and memory issues along those lines, this could just be normal memory lapses. For me, my memory losses are a bit more significant.... At almost 58 years old, I am forgetting the names of people who I already know, and having the occasional black out where I forget how I got somewhere, or why I am even there. I will eventually remember, but sometimes it can take several minute to get my memory back. I am also doing other concerning things like leaving my house without a coat, when it's very cold and putting on my shoes (and tying them) before I put on my pants. These things have concerned me enough that I am now seeking help, especially since they are getting worse and because I also have a family history of dementia. Please keep in mind that I am almost 58 years old, so there is a 30 year difference in our ages. However, if you are experiencing anything like what I am experiencing, then you should definitely see a doctor. I hope this helps.

I paid money to vegetable vendor and after just 1 minute i paid him again ......my stress is killing me ..
I have adhd and was diagnosed at a young age, I have been on medication for years but when I forget to take it I know because it’s like dementia. I’ve gotten lost in places I have been over 100 times. I’ve asked the same question, 4 times in 20 minutes, like my short term memory is gone. Before I got on medication, I had no idea how bad it was. Adhd can seriously be debilitating if untreated.
Side note, sometimes even on medication I still have these moments they are just not as frequent. And thank god because living like that is debilitating.
They tend to peak at your late 20s... I feel like I can't remember most things
Microwave radiation. All the vaccines they gave us as well. Nano aluminum in the air. Disappointing, but true. Not that you'll "believe" there is a hard biological source, regardless.
"Memory tends to peak when someone in their late 20s"
Im im my late 20s... I see no peak :(
Yeah i think more downgrade
Dehydration, social anxiety, and stress, is the reason... why people think I'm dumb.
I would love a video on a CBT Session for OCD if that's possible :)
Holy Crap!! Past year I’ve changed-ALOT! As someone who has always lived w/ADHD (& live in $$ SO CALI), & LOSING MY JOB DUE TO COVID... I CANT REMEMBER SH*T ANYMORE DUE TO STRESS!! Argh!!!! 😹
Great content and discussions! Thank you!
I was on meth for 6 years and I feel like it messed up my memory a bit but also I been dealing with a lot of stress and anxiety so that makes it worse.
I have several TBI’s, BPD, now mold toxicity has brought me to a complete standstill. Extreme mental fog, I ca not Renee why I left a room or why I’m outside. This is different from before, it seems like when I try to recall something, it’s like it never existed. On a farm with a narcissist and I must admit it’s spooky here now. I get nothing but gaslighting and untruths from her. If it wasn’t for my dog here I don’t think I would be alive today.
Im 19 and i struggle with my memory so so much, it impacts every part of my life and makes things harder for me. I try to write things down, and i guess in a way it feel as if trying to remember things makes it harder on myself because of the way I talk myself down in my head like “how did u forget something like that, what were u thinking, why can’t u just remember” it’s really exhausting. I forget things I did the day before, I forget appointments, I’ll make reminders for things and I’ll forget I made them, I forget where I put things down. It’s really confronting when someone in my life asks me a question like -do you remember this thing that we did the other day or a place we went and im scrambling my head just trying to grasp anything relating to what they’re saying and I just can’t remember so I have to act like I do, I feel ashamed almost. The scary part is that if someone wanted to they could put a memory in my head that isn’t real and that didn’t happen bc of my lack of memory, like I just go with it cus I’m thinking - yeah that probably happened I wouldn’t remember it myself anyways, so I would just go with it. I’ll also get made fun of some times by those around me cus they’ll notice that I misplace things a lot and that im forgetful so I can’t even hide it. In school I struggled so much because a big part of school is memorizing things so although my teachers told me I was smart I couldn’t preform well bc of my memory. Im young I shouldn’t be having these issues and I’m worried for myself it’s always affected my life but I’ve been noticing it more recently that I’m not living with my family anyone, I don’t have them to remind me about things and keep me on track a lot so :/ I have to rely on myself, my notes app, reminders and papers I write things down on but still then I misplace those 😂 or forget to come back to them. So sad !
Man Im same age as you and I have the same feeling and same things happening in my life

Im 22 years old,i feel same
Focus on one thing at a time and be attentive to it. Slow down a bit and stay a live with grace.
I'm 24 yo, and I don't know if mine is mental or physical but it sure getting worse, people would get mad at me if I forget (at my internship) and I Swear I even write things down but the problem I FORGET THAT I WROTE THEM DOWN
I look several times at number digits to be able to type them
Or once I have it memorize, if im cut off, I forget what I remembered instantly
I forget people's names, I forget even having a dtae with them planned, I forget things on the oven, I forget my phone (even tho I use it non-stop), I forget my bags, my keys language I forget what I was doing I forget my own clothes that I have them untill someone reminds me of the piece of garment that I once wore on a particular day and I'm like "do I have that piece of clothes?" ... Sigh I'm tired, it's a huge insecurity of mine now
i have a really bad memory to the point that i’m ashamed of how bad i am at remembering
stupid simple things and i’m showing all those signs of forgetfulness at 20. is this my peak 😭😭😭😭
Same 😕
Me too
Don't worry about it many people face this type of problem. As one of my friends was also facing this memory loss problem then he tried herbal Ginkgo Biloba supplement for the last 4 months and now he is seeing some improvement. He is taking Roncuvita Ginkgo Biloba herbal capsule if you want you may also try it. It is really effective.

My grandmother had dementia and my mother has it also.... At 57 years old, I am now in a place where I am forgetting more and more everyday. And, it is much more than walking into a room and forgetting why I went in there in the first place... I am looking at people who I have known and not remembering their names - this happens quite a bit. I am also forgetting basic life things like washing my hands and putting on my pants before my shoes. Sometimes, it feels like I have blacked out and I have to take a moment to get my bearings in order to know where I am. I am also becoming more tired and less active. I only do things that will effect my day to day, but other activities are at zero right now. I am at the point where it is now beginning to concern me; especially given my family history. I am not sure if this is normal or something far more concerning. Every on-line memory or dementia test seems to indicate that I am going through something normal for my age. I don't believe that this is the case. I am not sure what to do.

@yankee2666 I made this comment over a year ago, and in that year, I have become more and more forgetful. This is no longer an issue for me, and it no longer frustrates me. I simply don't care about this situation anymore. I've learned to cope and to take many deep breaths. Overall, I have simply made my peace with all of it, and I am now at the point where I am making arrangements for my life in the coming years. I really don't know how many years I have left, but at some point, I will forget it all. I have also come to realize that there is something pleasant in what is coming. Yes, I realize that I will forget many good memories, but I also realize that I will forget many unpleasant ones as well. And, at last count, I've had more bad ones than good ones. Thanks for the comment.
Beautiful upload, thank you for sharing! Stay healthy and safe! 👍😊🍓
I'll put something down and need it an hour later but my mind is completely blank. I remember having it and putting it down but after that? Blank completely. Not a single ounce of memory on where it is I put it.
I once’s forgot everything that happened before me In life but could still name things and knew who my family was
Device-free zone is really good advice.
Also disassociation can cause this!
I write them down, then lose paper. Voice note then forget to input somewhere visual, put on calendar forget to check calendar. Ug.
I feel stupid and a disappointment whenever my mum gets angry with me when miss concerts and events.
I can't never remember what ADHD stands for. Like, never. Even after reading it. And that's just an example of my life. Sometimes I want to comment on a video I find interesting just to see my comment is there ALREADY 😢😢😢. THIS IS REALLY BAD 😞😞😞
A dear friend of mine is always losing bank cards and she is now a senior citizen (every month going to bank to get a new card - instead of online),she constantly loses her keys, cash, iPhones and she has always been like this. She does not have help from her family who at one time helped her with keys. She does not seem to learn from her mistakes. Her house is filthy and she can not get repairman to go in and fix things. When she was a kid she had a maid and a nanny. She is now on a fixed income and I am constantly shocked at the amount of important items she loses and she loses them often. I wonder if she is doing this as a distraction so that she does not have to deal with feelings or issues. Maybe this is some form of self-sabotage. Her filthy house may be a way to keep others out of her life. I can not speak to her about her hoarding issues as this makes angry no matter how kind or gentle I try to be. I do not want to lose her as a friend and I worry about her. She is fiercely independent.
I use my phone to absorb the informative content the majority of the time. Everywhere you go, someone is trying to advertise something, and sell us their course, program, etc. It's incredibly stressful. 😢
she is amazing, very clear, chil and interesting
i have bipolar 2 so atp i’m just blaming my forgetfulness bc of it. It’s tiring and it hurts
I started to experience the problem at age 34 and its worsening day by day.
I can hardly remember what you just to me a minute ago.
I never sleep well i never dream so no rem sleep I find it very surprising when I have a dream it's a very rare occurrence I could go months without dreaming i have adhd which does help me remember things that I'm interested in but once I stop fixating on that interest that too fades away ive been depressed for a few years to the point where I dont go outside of my house with the exeption of grocerys i forget any conversations arguments events when i wake up the next day i still remember the emotions i felt but they are dulled less intense for example I would have an argument with someone and then go to bed when I wake up I remember having an argument with them but I don't really remember what I said to them or what they said to me I can feel vague emotions of the argument if the argument has something that pertains to my future then I will most likely remember some of it but not most of it but if it's one of those pointless arguments they will remember basically nothing which is a good thing and a bad thing good that I can start off my day without feeling that bad but I can't say the same for the other person involved it's hard to keep promises if you forget all the time what you promised now then I'm done sharing random information about myself to strangers on the internet ima gonna go to sleep now and probably forget most of what I wrote and do what I do everyday ignore my problems for I am the queen of passive aggressive pessimism
Is there anyway you could do a video on dp/dr disorder. I’ve been struggling with it since a was a teenager and it’s not talked about very often, even thought it’s a very scary, and life altering dissociative disorder
Thanks it really helped me I thought I am president of Italy but because of you I remember that I am actually a president of America thank you
I literally forget everything like if i just read sum thing I forget what it said somone tells me sum i forget a couple min later
My problem is sometimes I have severe headache and sometimes memory lost when I worked about 5 hours then my memory start worrying in me
i'm 16 y/o and i'm really struggling currently with some type of memory loss, i'm forgetting words i used to know, i'm writing things backwards, i forget the meaning of things even though they have been told to me multiple times throughout the course of the day or week, and even with in a span of a couple of MINUTES. things that i used to know and be familiar with are now something i need need to be reminded of. patterns and routines, i recently got myself in trouble at school bc i have this class, 8th period on what we call an A day,an d i had completely forgotten what i had i was so sure i checked all my possibilities and i never found it, now you might think, "why didn't you ask someone in the office like an administrator?", well my anxiety is pretty bad and i was scared to for whatever reason so i ended up skipping that class for a month. i got lunch detention then got in trouble bc i kept missing my lunch detentions and was told i was refusing to go when that was not the case at all! i kept forgetting and they would remind me AFTER lunch, meaning i would have to make it up the next day, and the cycle would continue. i go to therapy for several reasons like my mental illnesses, Anxiety, Severe Depression, PTSD, and ADHD, its just a handful. and i often forget what i am supposed to bring up to my therapist because even though something has been bothering me and it is worth mentioning during our meetings i will not remember that i had something to talk about so we end up circling back to the same issues that we have previously discussed even though i'm going through way more and new things keep popping up. i Have a REALLY hard time remembering names. My dad has a hard time remembering names to coincidentally, i have always had thins problem to a small degree but i feel throughout the years it is way worse and much more of a problem. If i have to give important information i wont remember who is worth mentioning i will just refer to the person as my relationship statues with them, such as, "my therapist", "my (insert subject) teacher", "my psychiatrist", "my friends from (whenever/however i met them)". i always forget what i am talking about mid sentence and i can never recover and just shut down, OR i will say one thing multiple times throughout a week, day, or minute and not realize it until it is pointed out and even then might continue to make the same mistake. i have a hard time learning new things, i have always had and it caused me to be a bad student since i started going to school, i was labeled a problem child and a trouble maker when i only acted out bc of thing i was going through at home and the fact that i was really struggling but people would only tell me to ask my parents for help (which was not an option for me as i have gained a lot of trauma bc of it), or study, or just pay attention. no one understood the i COULD NOT. or at least that it was really hard. i have a lot of deep rooted trauma associated with school and bc of it i stopped doing my homework in 6th grade, stopped informing my parents about how i was doing in school, stopped telling them about important meetings the school wanted to have, stopped trying in school, etc. and i stopped trying to learn overall bc even though i knew i could if i just had the right help, i wasn't getting it and came to the conclusion that i would never receive it. so i stopped trying and now i have missed years worth of important and valuable information regarding basic education. i felt stupid, i still do bc i do not know most of the things i should, i am a junior but i only got this far bc of sympathy from school/teachers and summer school. i have went to summer school almost every year of my school life since is was in 1st grade. Now i'm acting like i have dementia. i don't know what to do and it is really scaring me and messing with my anxiety, i feel like this might cause some sort of panic attack in me as i feel it is getting to me a lot more. i'm having suicidal thoughts bc of this and self-harm urges. i need help truth be told. i cannot remember fucking anything, and forget fucking everything. i know i'm a year late but i just found this video.
its weird i can remember things academically like different math equation, new concept but when it comes to personal things like did i remember to turn on fan when cooking, forget food in the oven, what did someone just say to me two seconds ago during a casual conversation i completely forget
my memory problems have been bad for a while as i have ADHD but ever since ive been falling into my depressions(often on more of the severe side) my memory has gotten to pure hell. it feels like i cant make coherent thoughts and ill constantly forget what i was saying or thinking. the brain fog is crazy too, quite funky
this comment really reassured me because i’m 18 with depression and adhd. i’ve always had shit short term memory but these past few days it’s been worse. i’m a huge hypochondriac so i usually think of the worst case scenario health wise, and in this case it’s the fear of having alzheimer’s or another form of dementia. but this comment as well as the others on this video have reassured me a bit.
i’m 26 i haven’t had to apply math since 20 when i finished Calculus series in college. And now i can’t remember basic times tables and completely forgot Calculus. Took Spanish in college 3 courses and passed with B’s in 2019. I forgot it all and still only really know the basic spanish i learned back in middle school. I can follow a new movie but months later it might be hard for me to describe the plot after. I’ll read a book and skip 3 days, come back and realize i can’t recall some of the parts i read early in the book of just pages before.
You explained everything I’m going through though, and
I’m only 16 rn. I hope since you’re of age you can soon get therapy or some sort of professional advice for it 🥹
I went to my mom to talk about this issue
She asked me to drink more water and stop using my phone too much....
It was funny but somehow It works :v
Really? I’m struggling with this right now and I can’t sleep

What was this video about again?
I'm living in constant stress since losing my career & job n living under the rule of a verbally abusive drunk n my 8yr old little girl getting cussed at and verbally abused make me so forgetful I've been a complete moron n triggering him more.

Building your attention span, focusing on one task at a time, lessen use of device
I’m embarrassed. Yesterday in class a sub asked me if I knew someone and I said yes because they had the same last name as me and I couldn’t remember. So I showed a picture of my mom and she was like nah I’m thinking of someone else. And now everyone knows that I made a mistake.. I don’t even remember directions to my relatives house.
i believe i got ADHD but i dont recall my memory was ever bad. my first major stressed i knew i had memory loss. i felt it right away along with rapid grey hair. both my parent dont get their grey hair very late. my mom got little grey hair even after 60 years old. sometime even when i type really fast, my conversation is different than my thoughts or some words is different than the word i intended to type.
sometime i talk about something, i forget what im about to say. i have the plan on what to say but it just disappear then i have a habit to talk about something associate to it. its getting scary for me. i eat a lot of sweet too. dose that impact it? i feel like it dose but i think the stressed i had in the past really affected my mind today.
i thought about taking supplement for brain health but those pill is usually for older people that are 50 years old plus.
I am watching this 2 years later just because i am so much concerned about my memory. I seem to be forgetting everything. It's making it hard to focus on my clinical work as it requires me to have critical thinking and evaluation everyday. I need help now.
Is it normal to have these problems as a kid and teen and early 20’s
Those problems can be caused by a lot of things apparently including dehydration so i guess?
I'm really struggling with this at the moment, I keep forgetting things that my girlfriend is doing on each day and she thinks I don't listen to her at all except I do. It's making her upset and I don't know what to do😭
Same here man
It's kinda unsettling to this highlighted as watched videos and yet I don't recall watching this and other video like this
I am 22, I used to have good memory and everybody complements me for that, I used to find interest any topics, and tasks, after the covid it become worse now I can't even remember names, faces and What I just did few days ago, now if I try to Imagine someones face that I know, and I can't see properly. I forget things, and sometimes I don't understand what I am doing, all the time my mind stays sad, if anyone have similar experience please let me know
I have MDD & ADHD. I'm 71, but I don't think that's the issue. My depression is glaring right now.
As we get a little older? You have no idea but book learning only.
Peaple told me I repeat my self over and over but I don't remember saying it before so I think there gaslighting me but tonight my daughter in Texas said to me mum did u know u repeat yourself over and over .I realised in not being gaslighted I had a growth found in neck .going for biopsy Monday MRI I will tell Dr about this problem
I'm 13 I forgot my memorys from 5 to 7 and I keep asking people for my own name
don't give up. you are still young and you can believe God for hilling. God created us can fix whatever a problem we have. call Jesus Christ.the saviour of our soul can as well hill our body.
My mum kinda forgets things like she had a chocolate from a box, then came back, my brother had one, and then she said, ‘oh you had 2’ but she forgot she had one
I don't know what my problem is. Honestly, with as long as I've been aware that I'm forgetful, I sometimes think it's some kind of cognitive misdevelop (I'm aware that I may have just made up my own word), or maybe the way I was raise caused my development to go one way, or I also wonder if it truly came later when I was an adolescent. I got into an accident when I was 11. I got a concussion, but that's the only injury that was discussed. But what happens with the area of the brain that experiences physical trauma? Does it fully heal, can it cause something to disconnect. I don't know how long I've been forgetful, I just know that I've always had a hard time retaining information. I can't remember names or faces. Long term memories are easier to access than short term. I repeat things, and misplace things. My husband speaks of memories that I can't reach. I will admit that our lives forever feel like constant chaos. Circumstances always feels out of our control, so when he brings up memories, it's like something that happens around a stressful time. And with that, to him it feels like insignificance to me, or I don't care, but that's the farthest from the truth. I can't multitask, so how am I supposed to remember something when it's forgotten. Same thing with the misplaced or forgotten things. When they're out of your mind when you don't need it, how do you just pull the memory out of thin air? I'm so slow at that. Remembering what I was doing in the current moment is becoming challenging as well. I joke to my husband, which I know I shouldn't, but I say, "don't be surprised if one day I'm diagnosed with dementia, because this forgetting thing is a whole trait of mine." Don't know where it came from, or how it stuck, but no matter how mindful I try to be, I can never get better at it.
I lose intelligence every day, and I’m forgetting my name and multiplication even tho I’m a 9th grader.
Remember that this might be caused because of a personality disorder
Same bro,even i always forget about everything...its suck
In your experience have you noticed, or has anyone brought it to your attention, that their memory has started to fade while taking any statin medication? I have noticed.
I’m 18 and I struggle with forgetting things a lot to the point where I have to write down everything I want to do in the day before I forget and I’ll even forget I wrote them down. I recently noticed I’ve been asking the same questions over and over to my family… what to do now?
I'm in the same boat actually with the writing of things down because i keep forgetting, you'd want to see a proffesionist if memory loss is affecting your everyday life
I've always been a little forgetful, and it gets to a point where it gets embarrassing sometimes. I forget instructions, like if my sisters ask me to bring their things somewhere, or I get asked to do a small task, but if I don't do it right away, I would forget, and it's going to look like I ignored the request on purpose. More recently, my cousin has repeatedly told us that she is allergic to nuts, and in my excitement to make breakfast for her one day, I made oatmeal the way I always do it: with peanut butter. She forgave me easily, but I still feel very embarrassed that I forgot.
Ngl there was this one time when I was just tired tired anyway to be short I forgot what day it was or if I just slept the entire day and it was the next day 😂
A lot changed for me in the past year, mostly all positive but i ended up burning myself out on a great work opportunity. I feel like I haven't come back from that yet. I feel like I had better cognitive function when I was an alcoholic than I do now when I'm sober. I may know something but I can't recall it, or I confidently misremember things. It's becoming unbelievably frustrating.
I have smoked weed every day since 18 and I wonder why I can’t remember anything
I began has bad memory in early 20ies
lately people tell me stories about things i told them and things we done together but i can t remember shit, not even when they give great detail, but no problems with following conversations or distributive attention
I do have problems with planing to do something, than i have a flash thought, and I forget all i have planned, but i know i wanted to do something and it takes me a while to remember what that thing is (usually simple stuff)
17 and I'm really concerned because I keep forgetting everything important these past few days and til now, I never had the chance to recall them. One instance was during my examination day. So, these are the things that I only remember, after getting into my classroom, I greeted our proctor (I was late - _- ), she called my surname and I gave her my exam permit then took my seat. We were taking physics that's why we prepared a cue card for formulas -we gave it to our tc for checking before the test- So, when I needed to take look at the card, I didn't bother for a second to ask my proctor about it (I was shy at first hehe because she wasn't our tc in physics) then she went outside for a second, so I asked my seatmate where'd they got their cue cards. She said, fron the proctor, and that's when I asked the proctor and wanna know what she told me? She said, "I gave it to you already, didn't I?" and there, I checked my bag and found I put it in there before I got to my seat. it's embarrassing af 😭
I notice that in the last few years, I started forgetting how to spell a lot of words which is really embarrassing. Need to check Google to be sure of the spelling. Then just recently, It's been difficult to retain information. I actually just started a new job and currently undergoing product and process training. It's been two weeks and I still keep forgetting important information which is very crucial to my job. I have to ask my trainer the same questions several times which is a waste of her time. I am 43 and I am afraid this is a start of a serious memory loss issue. There are even times that I would need to stare at the monitor for a few seconds to few minutes while thinking of the right words to use. If this continues I would need to leave my job(or I'll get fired) because I wouldn't be able to meet my employer's expectation. 😭😭😭
I have a problem reading more than 2 lines. I can't concentrate much!
No because I forgot my best friends AND my own name a couple days ago. Im 13.
Are depression causing the brain to shrinks and could u gain the loss of gray matter in those areas ?
Wonderful video, thanks for sharing! See you around! 🎧🎵😎
I am doing medical and it's too hard for me to understand and memorise things. So, every single day feels like hell.
Same.. I am also doing mbbs.
What problem are you facing
@@sabiha4600what's yours condition now 😊
I think its stress thats causing my memories to fade a little, I usually lose small stuff like notes and especially money. 2 weeks ago I placed my money somewhere near my desk top and now I cant find it. I clearly remember putting it somewhere around there now it's gone, plz help me remember!
Clicked for stress. Seems performance goes down in groups. One new detail and forget review from half hour. Slow pace and if alone figure things out. How can one handle a job?
I can recall exact situations and conversations back to early childhood.
It’s a type of verbal/visual eidetic memory but I can’t easily memorize written text.
My dad and his brother had Alzheimer’s so I wonder if a person like myself could get it also and how it might manifest?
Honestly I wouldn’t mind losing this ability since this type of thing is more of a curse then blessing.
Any thoughts?
Ps I’m 60 years old and no significant changes yet.
What is it like to be able to recall conversations you have with others? I really try to remember and recall dialogue but I usually only remember small parts of it. Is there a certain way you visualize a story being told that helps you remember it better?
@@Sanctification22
Excellent questions.
Im not that thrilled having this “ability”.
On the plus side i can recall in my head every note/lyric of every song ive ever heard but im not a gifted singer or musician so its kind of wasted on me.
I dont have any techniques that I can share since it just happens.
I was 25 or so before I realized I was way different from most others.
Honestly I’ve developed ways of hiding it at times so i dont appear too freakish.
You should read into hyperthymesia
I have an ex who has started losing her memory when it comes to going to places she knows very well how to get to and from those places along with having the feeling people are coming into her house when she'd not at home and blaming me for hacking her phone and internet. Now they do act weird and shows unknown devices have connected to the wireless router but blames me cause I'm the closet to her.. is psychosis and memory loss hand in hand? How can I communicate with her that it wasn't me.
I have always had both long term/short term memory problems and the best way for me to describe it is that my memory is just like swiss cheese filled with holes
lol i forgot the dipper in the bathroom and my brother was mad at me. i think the issue was i was not mindful at what i do and worry about what people think of me
In addition to the other helpful tips in the vid, here is what helped me, personally, dramatically.
I can't promise it will work for you because as the lady says there are different issues.
Colloidal silver. Fish. Tea and coffee and decaf is okay. Celery. MCT and/or coconut oil. All backed by research.
In addition, research shows a strong link between staying up late and dementia, especially as one gets older. To match circadian rhythms be in bed by 11 PM.
Keep checking your urine ph. If it goes down you may get tired menially as well as physically. For me what works is a good solid 8 ph.
Be sure never get to low blood sugar. Don't be hungry but keep little meals going, especially meat.
for your health, maybe cut out the silver bits? this is from webmd: "Colloidal silver has been used for infections, hay fever, skin conditions, and many other conditions, but there is no good scientific evidence to support any of its uses... It can be unsafe when taken by mouth, applied to the skin, or inhaled."
@@sachab6098 Webmd is very conservative in what they say. But the truth is that alternative health methods do not get funding for testing from places like Big Pharma. Years ago I had a sore throat. I tried colloidal silver spray. To my shock my tonsils, which had always been large, shrunk to so small a doctor asked if I had had them removed. Obviously I had an infection in them, for years, that the spray killed.
She briefly touches on how it goes both ways between parents and children, but I absolutely cannot stand the older generations that criticize and blame younger generations for being "addicted" to devices. If parents actually paid attention, interacted, and emotionally connected with their children, instead of just telling them to go outside more, or do something else but not do that something with them, then children automatically would use devices less. Maybe you have to implement more of a time restriction for teens (or maybe not, teens crave more independence from their parents naturally, and they deserve to have it within reason), but younger children are already instinctively wired to crave attention and comfort from their parents. It is the parents that provide the devices to their children to soothe them instead of soothing their children themselves, that have caused the lack of attention span and focus. I am more focused than ever when I play videogames because they were my emotional support growing up, they taught me how to problem solve, how to go on adventures, how to persevere when things got difficult, and even how to make decisions that would give me the desired outcome I wanted. I know technology was rapidly advancing while I was growing up, but the videogame consoles didn't cause my mental illness. The way I was raised did that, and videogame consoles helped me survive it. If it weren't videogames consoles, it'd probably have been television in the previous generation, books in the generation before that, literally anything that could've been used to escape reality. Fucking boomers just can't take responsibility for anything (and their parents can't take responsibility for Boomers, either). Hopefully more people in my generation learn to actually be good enough parents, and stop blaming the developing children that THEY are responsible to teach life skills, for their problems.
