    Another reason could be sleeping issues. You can be sleeping even 10 hours but if your sleep is not deep or qualitative enough, it could feel like sleeping 5 hours.

      Same here. 29 now buh at 28 I still had an incredible memory, though fading.
      Some time around October 2021 I suddenly developed amnesia. Years of PTSD and CPTSD no doubt.
      Every day I forget things. Every day I rediscover some memories that I once had. Then during the moments of remembering I feel so much pain at every forgetting these treasured memories.

    Also 22 here, I've been experiencing memory loss, and no matter how hard I tried for several months, I could not remember my childhood. I'm ONLY 22.I know my memory is sharp and incredible. I could remember a lot of things, like the exact Mc Donald's order back in 2020 of november 17, etc.
    But now, I believe the main causes for this was stress and depression (from my relationship and work) and quite possibly the fact that I started smoking weed and vaping.
    However, today, my memory is starting to come back. So stress really played a major role in this memory loss that lasted several months.
    Gosh, there's so many things to consider. But yeah, that's my experience at the age of 22 (23 next year). I've been off smoking/vaping for a couple months now. No temptations and cravings. And definitely not experiencing that brain fog and memory loss. I just hope it stays this way... Fingers cross 🤞.

    Alcoholics, take note. There is a medical condition known as Wernicke's Korsakoff Syndrome that affects the short-term memory. A vast number of alcoholics have a thiamine(vitamin B1) deficiency. Do your homework if this applies. It is potentially fatal, but reversible if diagnosed in time

      is the problem, I think. I've done a lot of research about how short form content and how it affects your brain and causes brain fog. I don't watch short videos but it's scary seeing the scientific research behind it and the fact that short form content is on every social media platform now.

    I have great memory since i was young .
    I used to remember and memorize everything I saw once or twice but when I was 12,13 and 14 years old I have family issues and became depressed and also having sleep paralysis so I stopped sleeping and only sleep for 1-2hours daily, sometimes I don't even sleep for 3 whole days. It cause me side effects like hallucination and always seems high on dr*gs because I can't think straight for lack of sleep. Now I'm 16 all good and problem solve from my therapy but Now My great memory skill is gone and I can't memorize things easily I even have to focus to memorize something and It really irritates me imagine having memorization issue and Memory loss from such young age.I guess It is what I get for not sleeping for atleast 2years and half.
    In the past I remembered my childhood experience amd almost everything happened since I was 3years old. Now I'm barely remembering what happened yesterday and last week.I still remember my childhood but only fragments of my memories are the things I remember unlike the past.

      Ikr... The body is at the end of the day, your biological vessel, if you don't treat it right, it won't treat you right either.
      The last year was crazy for me for a lot of reasons and I just wanna make a point that recovery is possible! While it is not possible to achieve that kind of ideal state, it is very much possible to adapt and train your mind and body, I was suffering from severe focus and attention issues, my health and my attention span was messed up, I couldn't even remember properly what I read a few seconds ago back then but now I am able to recall and connect pretty much everything I read even if it is a bit gibberish and foggy in my head, it is a massive improvement from my side. It's been months since I started eating healthy and made it a habit to read everyday diligently, It has been an enlightening experience with the changes I have noticed in me. Life is not perfect but you can always find ways and adapt to your current flaws and make use of your strengths to the fullest.

    I’m 16 and have this issue with remembering things. I’m a person that could remember everything even when I was 2 years old. I could think so well until I made a someone stupid decision (but not really for other people) anyways, I once decided to take an edible months ago (50mg) yes I’m dumb, say whatever you want but never again. I felt like Iost some part in me, and I had derealization for a few days. Mind you I have eczema, currently taken Adbry, last took Doxycycline a few weeks ago. My memory loss went away for quite some time, then whenever I took the Doxycycline, I almost forgot everything, even I couldn’t form a sentence, or even be aware of my surroundings. Just like when I took the Edible, but worse. Not taking the medication anymore, but I don’t feel like the same person anymore. I’m scared to tell my parents that I did that. I don’t remember stuff from a month ago unless I try really hard. Someone help me, God bless you!

    My memory has always been decent but recently, lack of quality sleep has negatively affected it. Guys please make sure you have a good sleep schedule you stick too. It's extremely important

    May be due to multiple problems - hereditary, stress, lack of sleep, bad routine, junk food, etc. I've started experiencing acute memory loss.
    I have trouble remember events that have happened during the day and recent past. Some older memories have completely erased from my mind, and I am only able to recollect them in bits and pieces when someone actively tries to make me recollect them, think about them. I dont remember the plot of the movies I watched, names of people that aren't active in my life, or life experiences from my not so recent past. Not sure if this is curable. I'm 36 now.
