I cannot remember things.

I am a 20 year old college dropout since i am super lazy. Anyways, for the last 10 years I cannot remember all sorts of things. That includes everything academic, social and just plain reading. I seem to forget the details and important things. I think this maybe I feel like my mind is blank; things just dont come to me at the right time or never at all. Thus I cannot connect with people or things in my life because I do not remember almost nothing about the thing i am trying to connect to. This seems to have speeded up in the last 2 years dramatically. For example, I excel at math to vector calc level. However now I cannot even do basic geometry or trig. At history I got the highest in my high school and I got high grades even in college. But now I cannot remember many things in history. For social, I cannot remember the people I met or talked to. I cannot remember what that person liked or not. So if someone knows whats going on then let me know.

wow, you sound heaps like me, ive tried to seek an answer for this too but unfortunately I was told that everyone forgets things, its hard to get people to understand that I forget things that other people dont forget
I’m toying with the ideas of ADD or maybe a slight form of autism, its very common for autistic people to have good intelligence but a terrible memory, asbergers has been diagnosed in my family recently (its related to autism) and while the girl diagnosed with it has quite classic and easily observed symptoms we are now wondering if a few of us may have a slight form of it
I had a memory test about 6 months ago and I was told I had a higher than average memory, didnt make sense to me, untill I read a bit about asbergers, apparently asbergers can have a great memory, but trouble recalling things when they are needed, interesting I think, and they tend to have very good skills in things like maths, technology, mechanics or sometimes astrology, stuff like that

oh yeah, and your wild “maybe” punt was so helpful
how bout leave it to the poster to decide if any of what I have said may match up with his question or not
do you even know anything at all about the conditions ive mentioned, if not then I dont think you have much sway in criticizing the fact I took the time to simply share my thoughts

criticizing and now name calling wow arnt you educated , there really was no need to comment on my thoughts in the first place, I was simply sharing, I dont know the poster, and I doubt you do either, any comment they receive may be helpful, no need to disregard others comments

yeah, do you realize you need to be registered to be able to reply, and Ive kinda been around for 2 years, might be time to start getting your facts straight before jumping to conclusions

Anyway, even with the extra info, i still stand by my original reply, not saying that you must have some form of any of these ‘conditions’, but when you have no answers anything is a possibility I guess….might I add anyone with any condition is still a person!
