Amnesia
Does anyone else suffer from temporary (or permanent) memory loss?!I can’t seem to be able to keep a thought in my mind for long. Yesterday I had an idea of a post I wanted to write about. Today, for the life of me, I can’t remember what the topic was!
What am I supposed to do? It just seems to be getting worse! It’s gotten to a point where I have to set reminders on my phone just to remember to make a call the next day or get something done.

i dont think this qualifies for memory loss of any type or ‘degree’
i think it’s very normal, especially the part about your ‘thoughts’ in wanting to write something and then forgetting about it .. i like to think that’s natural
as for the reminders in your phone, again, that’s what i did back home .. if it’s work related, it shows you’re organized so that’s that
however for your personal agenda .. say, calling ur friend and telling her u wanna go out or something .. forgetting abt that would be worrying, but i dont think thats what u were talking abt

temetwir: la 3ad it’s not just work related.. ya3ney if i want to remember when i get home to look for something, then i’ll put a reminder! if i want to remember in the morning when i wake up to grab something before leaving home, i’ll put a reminder!
it’s not that i always need them. there r times where i remember on my own.. bs el 7aleh sa3ba!!

I agree with Temetwir…your situation doesn’t qualify for Amnesia.
My advice…. drink Green Tea daily and you are good to go.

fallen angel: green tea… it’s the ‘in’ thing now.. i’m just waiting for studies to suddenly show that it actually causes some side effect that no one knew about
i’ll try that..

A lot of times stress can cause temporary memory loss… are u under a lot of stress? (who isn’t? right? :P)
i wouldn’t worry about it too much… it could be the heat, you have a lot on ur mind already, or like i said, stress..
I put reminders all over the place otherwise i know i’d forget half the things i’m supposed to do…

krispy dixie: mm, no, nothing out of the ordinary. i think i just dont have the motivation to remember things anymore
not worried, was just curious!
thanks!

Hello. Prompt how to get acquainted with the girl it to me to like. But does not know about it
I have read through one history
Each of you has your personal story; it is your history. Keeping a diary or writing your feelings in a special notebook is a wonderful way to learn how to think and write about who you are — to develop your own identity and voice.
People of all ages are able to do this. Your own history is special because of your circumstances: your cultural, racial, religious or ethnic background. Your story is also part of human history, a part of the story of the dignity and worth of all human beings. By putting opinions and thoughts into words, you, too, can give voice to your inner self and strivings.
A long entry by Anne Frank on April 5, 1944, written after more than a year and a half of hiding from the Nazis, describes the range of emotions 14-year-old Anne is experiencing:
“. . . but the moment I was alone I knew I was going to cry my eyes out. I slid to the floor in my nightgown and began by saying my prayers, very fervently. Then I drew my knees to my chest, lay my head on my arms and cried, all huddled up on the bare floor. A loud sob brought me back down to earth, and I choked back my tears, since I didn’t want anyone next door to hear me . . .
“And now it’s really over. I finally realized that I must do my school work to keep from being ignorant, to get on in life, to become a journalist, because that’s what I want! I know I can write. A few of my stories are good, my descriptions of the Secret Annex are humorous, much of my diary is vivid and alive, but . . . it remains to be seen whether I really have talent . . .
“When I write I can shake off all my cares. My sorrow disappears, my spirits are revived! But, and that’s a big question, will I ever be able to write something great, will I ever become a journalist or a writer? I hope so, oh, I hope so very much, because writing allows me to record everything, all my thoughts, ideals and fantasies.
“I haven’t worked on Cady’s Life for ages. In my mind I’ve worked out exactly what happens next, but the story doesn’t seem to be coming along very well. I might never finish it, and it’ll wind up in the wastepaper basket or the stove. That’s a horrible thought, but then I say to myself, “At the age of 14 and with so little experience, you can’t write about philosophy.’ So onward and upward, with renewed spirits. It’ll all work out, because I’m determined to write! Yours, Anne M. Frank
For those of you interested in reading some of Anne Frank’s first stories and essays, including a version of Cady’s Life, see Tales From the Secret Annex (Doubleday, 1996). Next: Reviewing and revising your writing
