I’ve been having trouble keeping track of what year it is. The other day, I thought wrote that it was 2010 before I caught myself. Today, I was thinking it was 2015.
Sometimes, I forget my cat’s name. I’ve had her for almost 3 years.
It takes me a while to figure out and remember people’s faces. Sometimes I can meet someone, talk to them for an hour, and then not recognize them when I see them again.
If there are actors on a show or movie who look similar, I can’t always tell them apart.
I have forgotten my own name, and today, I had to look at my prescription to remember the spelling of my own name to give it to the pharmacist over the phone.
When I was dating someone earlier this year, I sometimes couldn’t remember his name.
Sometimes when I go to read something, the print makes no sense and doesn’t even register as words.
I had to buy a weekly pill sorter very similar to the one above because not only do I sometimes forget to take my meds, but sometimes I can’t remember whether or not I have taken them that day.
I could keep giving examples.
I have brought these up to numerous doctors, but none of them take them seriously. It’s frustrating, and also frightening.
The pill containers are a great idea and I use one as well.
I caught up with a mate from a sci fi and fantasy film group I belong to last week and because he had a goatee I had alot of trouble recognizing him.
Nothing new there for me, I’ve always had problems with faces.
