Forgetting what my boyfriend and I were talking about

Last night was a little challenging for me. My boyfriend and I were sitting on my couch watching tv. We were also talking about different things. At school today, things seemed to be fine, but while he and I were talking, I realized they weren't.

He said something to me and I would respond without any problem. Then I would totally forget what we were talking about. It was as if that conversation was just gone! I told him that I forgot what we were talking about and he just reminded me what it was. As we were talking, I noticed that this was happening again and again.


This is very scary because I'm totally aware of it while it is happening. When I say something to him, he will always help me get through it. But I don't think, even he can help with the frustration that I feel from this!


I think that my long- term memory is usually pretty good. It is my short-term memory that is mostly affected by this memory impairment. Sometimes I will forget things that were said or that happened, just moments ago. I will also forget things from hours or days ago.


He will talk about things that we've done or places that we've been to together and I just nod my head. While he is telling me this, I'm not really sure if I remember or I just think that I remember because he is telling me. I'm not really sure if that makes sense, but that is what it is like for me.
