Is it normal patchy memory?

I only remember about 10 things from my chldhood, nothing more. I only remember the last four years of highschool. I retain memory of the information learned, but the events of the day are blacked out. I only remember about 3 days before, you're lucky if I could recall something from last week. I apparently had a friend get me some stuff from the world series game. I remember I told her to get me something, but anything more and it's beyond me. Why do I have horrible memory?

    You'll be back in diapers before you know it or maybe you won't know it.

    Sounds a lot like me. I do smoke pot but my memory issues started before I was a toker. Medications that weren't intended for young people is what opened my brain drain. These days I'm lucky to remember what I just said this morning or what happened a few days ago. I'm full of useless info though. I remember everyones birthday even if I only heard it mentioned once. Weird, but those people are pleasantly surprised when they get a happy birthday from me. So what I've said didn't help much but I can totally relate

    Selective memory? Do you use any drugs? I don't know, but the insignificant things are usually less likely to stick in your memory. That is how most people are.

      I don't do any drugs at all. I guess my memory is super selective. I pretty much remember a lot of 'useless' info and random stuff that works to my advantage.
