Memories9

[ConcernedParticipant]

Hi I’ve been getting very worried as I have OCD and now I forget things a few hours after I did them. Usually I have a fantastic memory and can remember everything. But during the last few months I cant focus on the thoughts in my head. I’ll do something and thenhours later cant remember myself doing it. Could this be related to OCD?

I’m putting my absent mined ness down to age… I’m nearly 70, and as a bloke, it could be male menopause. That’s my excuse anyway!  We aren’t memory machines particularly. Some are academic, a lot of us not… I’m not thick, I just don’t do instant recalll. As for names… I’m hopeless at names! I am good at some things, just not memory…
