Losing short-term memory. WTF?
« on: January 10, 2013, 03:31:59 AM »
It started a couple weeks when I couldn't get a parking space for my dental appointment. I parked far away and ran all the way there. When I sat down to fill my form, and I put down my phone #, I put the wrong phone #down. Instead of 2121, I put 4545.

Well, today I couldn't come up with the name of the pizza shop that is right near us. It was nowhere in my brain, even though it's very obvious and I had to google it.

Yesterday, I forgot our apartment number when filling out an ebay transaction (we just moved here last month but cmon).

I did have a ctscan as recent as june and tons of hospital tests from other unrelated anxiety attacks. But this is bothering me because it makes no sense. How could I not remember things this easy? It's like they were never in my memory to begin with. Stress? Sleep deprival? Death?

Stress, anxiety and lack of sleep would be at the top of my list.  I find myself forgetting the obvious when those factors are weighing especially heavy upon my life.
