so i have a extreamlly bad memory and im not even 20 heres an example say you tell me to turn in a report in first period by the end of the day i forget the whole thing!
i swear my memory spand last like 5 minutes then it all goes blank is it normal?
having a good memory takes effort and practice. if you expect to remember everything without putting any effort into to it, then it could be that you are just lazy about remembering things.
if you find that you do not remember assignments, then i suggest you start with getting a small notebook. use the notebook for everything that you want to make sure you remember. then of course, you have to remember to look at the notebook. see if you can develop a habit of using the notebook. if you master that, you may find that because you have been exercising your memory, it may start working better.
That sucks. I'm sorta the same way with my short term memory... but my long term memory is phenominal!
yeah im with you, i have trouble remembering too, but memory is something you have to work at continously, you cant just expect to have it, try some memory exercices to improve it....
I have ADHD and I'm almost 21. had it since I was really young. you probably have ADD/ ADHD. just get checked out for it. if you do, meds activities to help keep the brain and memory active help tons. your memory won't every be as good as someone w/o it, but those things will improve it.
Do u think of like a million small things? Are u super outgoing in school? Do most people say ur alot of fun but often do crazy things? And when ur sitting do u always move ur leg? You might have add like me.
Im exactly like what you describe, but I dont have ADD. (Not OP/author). It could be anything.
Memory loss can be anything, including lazyness. Try exersiceing your brain the same way mtnw said and if you find it dosnt work, best you go ask your GP about anything it could be.
