What would you do if you were 22 and kept increasingly forgetting

Damn you suck

I still remember episodes of Pokemon I watched when I was 9

Everything is a fucking blur.

stop doing drugs and drinking

What if you aren't doing either, so it's not from those?

Daniel Kahneman wrote a book.
Thinking: Fast and Slow.
Or you aren't paying attention.
Or you comprehend slowly.

Could be anything from adhd to a brain tumor, or nothing at all and you've just got a shit attention span from too much tv.

Go to a doctor.

Can you still remember things that happened a long time ago, like when you were a kid? If the problem only affects your ability to form short term memories you might well have early onset alzheimer's. Either way you ought to get yourself to a doctor as soon as you can. Brain problems are serious things.

I can barely remember anything. And I'm afraid to go to a doctor >>17781814

Is there some way I can make this useful?

>>17781848
why are you afraid to go to a doctor?
and what do you mean "make this useful?"

it could be so many different things, only a doctor is going to be able to narrow it down and help you. it could also be depression, sleep deprivation, lack of quality sleep (sleep apnea), blah blah blah.

>I'm afraid to go to a doctor

enjoy dying then. Again, maybe it's nothing, but maybe it's something. if you avoid checking into it it COULD WELL KILL YOU.

go to a doctor

This happens to me, even forgetting what was said a minute or two before in conversation.

But I've got hypothyroid and bipolar 2. I'm lucky I remember my own name some days.

There are a lot of potential causes for memory loss. Chances are it's not anything serious. Just go see a doctor.

Eh, I've had a couple of traumatic incidents when I was a kid and in 30% of the time the treatment was bad 100% of the time.

Don't like doctors nor hospitals and distrust medicine.

By make it useful I mean can forgetfulness and "being unaware of surroundings" be used for anything in practice?

For example my brain is blank most of the time and any kind of work I do is easy for me - as well as enduring a lot of pain and stress without much agony.

Not prone to depression and I sleep fine.

It will sound idiotic but my reasoning is that not much can be worse than a liver deteriorating from pills they'd give me.
