my Dr. told me that this is because I am "hyperfocused". I asked what that meant..he said the way my brain works..is it focuses on one thing at a time and it is so "hyper" focused on that one thing that everything else going around me...does not hit my radar.

I have forgotten many of my memories and even driving by my sons school one year...I couldn't even pull ONE memory of him attending that school.

He gave me an example as i was in his office...I was focused on staying on one drug..when I entered the office he said that was MY topic that I wanted to focus on and he asked me to recall what he had said in the last 10 minutes...and I couldn't. Hyperfocus...steals my memories.
