I'll do a bullet point list to make it simple
I go downstairs for something and forget what it was. I have to go back upstairs so I can remember.
I forget my PIN. To be fair this has not happened for a while but in the past it became so bad that my partner and my daughter have it in their phones so I can call them.
I go to the shops for a specific thing and come back without it
I go to the shop specifically for something for my partner and come back without that
I lose my card. I lose my partner's card. I lose my bag. I lose my purse
I lose the dog lead. I lose the car keys. I lose the house keys.
I have started calling the dog by another name. I know I am doing it too
I forget things that happened or lose the sequence or forget the plot entirely.
I forget appointments.
We went for a meal yesterday and my daughter asked for a drink and I bought her something else.
I asked her what she thought and she said I am forgetful. I am thinking of seeing the doctor about it................. then................
I asked my partner what he thinks and he said "you've always been like this"
I don't feel quite so bad now he said that.
Can anyone relate to anything I have said?
