Forgetting Thoughts

[lunarla]

Are any of you extremely forgetful? I feel like I'm, at times, abnormally forgetful. As if there's some sort of black hole lurking in there that takes all my thoughts away. I get that feeling of when you just wake up and knew you had a dream, but it just ever so precariously slips away! It's possibly one of the most annoying things to me in lyfe. I'll just keep thinking for the longest time about what it posssssibly could have been until I exhaust myself. What if it were like, an equation for time travel?! Gone down the black hole. Also, misplacing things has the same effect. Feels like my mind is going to explode or something, I dun know guiz.

It annoys me when it happens, I would try to remember it. Then a while later forget that i was trying to try to remember what I had to remember. Lol. I always blame it on my poor diet, I just need more food... I'm always starving.

 

[lunarla]

Yeah, and then I'll sorta, almostttt remember it or remember something like it, but then that just disappears. Always on the edge of obscurity, gah.

I'm extremely forgetfull and my dad likes to remind me of this. I've noticed i seem to have a very forgetful short term memory, but i've read somewhere that depression can be the cause of this.

I would like to give a real reply, but I can't remember what the op said...

I've had major trouble with this lately. I often lose my entire train of thought in mid-sentence. I'll say several sentences, have some semi-meaningful point that I'm trying to make.. then I'm suddenly like, "wait... what the hell was I talking about... what was the topic?"
It's pretty scary... sometimes I don't even remember why I am where I am. People have fallen under the impression that I'm some chronically stoned druggo person... maybe they're right and I just don't remember

for this reason, I end up writing a lot... making the ideas concrete and my thought processes more easily traced

I'm usually not forgetful because I obsessively write everything down. Everything.

Sometimes, clusters of paper all around my room.

 

[zlench]

Nope I tend to rember a lot things that have happened I rarely forget things.

I have been lately, but just cause I'm pregnant. Usually I'm pretty good

 

[lunarla]

It's interesting to hear that many of you also have the same forgetfulness to one extent or another! Black Hole Mind Syndrome, I'll call it. It's especially annoying because just in a matter of seconds a thought that I was going to say disappears! Or write, in some cases. It always happens when writing essays, grrrah.

It happens to me. I'll be thinking of something then it will just "disappear." Then I'll spend the next 20 minutes trying to figure out what it was. I'll start going over and over in my head what I was thinking right before to try and jump start my head I guess. But I rarely can get the thought back. I know what I was thinking right before and after, but there is a hole in the middle.

[dooby-duck]

Bits of my memory are useless. At work I can never remember what we did the day before or work we have done before. Someone can ask me to do something and seconds later I will have forgotten all about it. There is a lot of useless stuff going on in my head and I do find it hard to think straight and concentrate on only one thing. I have a great memory for negative events and stupid bits of dialogue from films, songs and adverts.

You never lie. I do that a lot too.
