I have very real trouble with my memory. It doesn't seem to matter if I am stressed or concentrating. It is terrible. I am seriously worried about it.

The worse ones are when I am heading to the manager to tell her there is something wrong with one of the animals and they need either to see a vet or to be kept close watch on, I get there only to stand around trying to remember what the hell I came to tell her then babble some rubbish walk off and at some point I remember then I have to ring her there and then.
I remember nothing of my childhood, teenage years and would greatly struggle to tell you what I had done on my major birthday's... actually thinking about it I genuinely don't recall. My whole life is a foggy haze. I honestly recall nothing clearly. I even tried to write things down as I needed only, I know this sounds funny but, I forgot to write them! *sigh* I don't know what to do. I have conversations with people which I immediately forget. Does anyone else have a terrible memory like this? I went to a doctor about sometime ago but she claimed it was my mental health. I don't think this is. It is getting worse. But my mental health is 99% better than it was. I am not on any medication.

my memory's not so good now
used to be brilliant before all the mental health stuff (used to be able to remember numbers, addresses, names)
now i need to write everything down in the space of 1 minit or it's forgotten
