I have times when I forget what I remember. It's like you could tell me something and five days later, I won't even remember what you had said. Other times its worse where I can completely forget to do something and other instances, if my mom say, shows me how to do the laundry, I'll forget how to do it the next time... I also had a hard time in school and processing information as well as being able to output the information to others.
It's a hassle because if it makes things any worse, I can't remember anything that happened after a certain age like, I can remember bits and pieces but its like my whole life has been a big huge blank. Like I don't remember anything from under the age of say, 21 and I'm 22... its like my brain resets itself or something.
I mean maybe its just part of High-functioning autism but I'm still so confused. Does anyone have an idea of what this is caused by or what it might be? I mean it really affects my memory and at times its quiet frustrating. I can remember small details like names of friends and my boyfriend... so that's beside the point.
