I had what was probably hyperthymesia until I got into college. Lots of drinking, drugs, experiences, illnesses and whatnot and now I'm almost 50 and can't remember much of what happened a couple hours ago. It's like Flowers for Algernon but in slow motion so not as painful.
- enobrev 4y agoComing around to my mid 40s and I can say the same with the same approximate reasons. I used to throw events with tens to hundreds of people as a teenager and I could remember the names of every guest including anecdotes about them. Even weeks after the event. Now it takes hearing a name about 15 time on several occasions for it to stick. I need to write down everything these days.
