Did you find out why? Tried mitigation techniques?
My fact memory is working relatively well (passive recall/recognition much better than active recall/production) but my autobiographical memory is almost non-existent. It's really bothering me.
I stopped consumption of disjointed media on social media-like feeds (only exception: HN) because that was worsening it to no one's surprise. Maybe a full digital detox to the extent work allows is in order?
What else could I try?
- wizzwizz4 5y agoWriting an autobiography.
- r-zip 5y agoI'm not sure, but this may be something to bring up with a psychologist/psychiatrist/therapist. If your memories are "overly general," then it may be linked to something else going on: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overgeneral_autobiographical_memory https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overgeneral_autobiographical_m...
