I'm suffering from a moderately disturbing short term memory deficiency. I was in Staples this afternoon to buy a portable DVD burner. As I was looking over their selection, I thought of something else that I wanted to buy. So I decided which one I wanted and turned to go off to the next thing, only I couldn't for the life of me remember what it was. I still can't remember. I just have to make myself believe that if I have forgotten, it must not have been all that important. And that's the way it will remain until I reach the point in time when I need whatever it was.
I use lists for shopping if I know ahead of time what I need, but when I think of something while I'm already at the store, that's when I have problems. I never think I'm going to forget something within a minute. I never used to have that problem, so it's a little unsettling. Am I just getting old, or could it be the drugs? (I take Sertraline and Nabumetone).
