I have swizz cheese memory. There are times I can't remember how to spell the simplest words, or--becomes a tangled knot, ore, Orr, oar, or? I will sit there for minuets trying to come up with a simple two letter word.

Dates, appointments? Forget it. There have been times I couldn't remember how to operate the computer, passwords, user names....ha! I have index cards that I use for that. My mind just does a completely new whiteboard sometimes. As for childhood, that's in bits and pieces.

You are not alone. Although I'm not sure if it's depression or medications.
