[IrishEyes]

Depends which way it goes If short term memory is like tomorrow, well then I need lists

 

[jujube]

Mine is is out-of-work memory.

 

[MACKTEXAS]

I'm okay with all those categories except maybe working memory. I have a short attention span, so if someone throws too much detail at me all at once, I may have trouble retaining some of it, especially during a tense conversation, or when distracted by emotions. I make notes when I can.

I have an incredibly bad memory.... I used to have a great memory and I still can remember lots of things from long ago... but I had a head injury some years ago... and it shot my short term memory.... so I do have to rely on making lists or keeping a diary for the more important things

You forgot selective memory.

My brain is similar to an old jukebox.



I have problems remembering certain names and terms when I need them but they usually pop to the surface at some odd moment a day or two after I need them.
