So im 16/f and i have an awful memory. I daydream a lot, im on my phone a lot and idk if that has anything to do with it? I'm trying to write in my journal from all the events of the last month and im drawing a blank. Its really frustrating, trying to remember something that happened that made me happy that i wanted to remember, something i did, events..but its all just a blur. There are things i can recall but its vague and its just worrying me cause its been like this for a while. I dont remember for how long though. Ugh is this serious? Or is it just im retaining so much info all the time and always thinking about other things that everything else just kindof gets puts in the back of my mind and just kindof fades away? Ah i dont know, does anyone else have this? Pleasr help! (link)
That's actually how I am. I have these incredible moments in the past months but now I can hardly remember some of the things that happened.
I don't remember my childhood until something comes up that triggers the memory or anything that happened in the last few months and someone brought it up, then I'll remember.

I can't tell you whether yours is a serious problem or if it isn't.
If it's just memories that you can't recall, then it's probably not a big deal. If it's interfering with your life and ability to deal with everyday tasks, then you need to search for help with your memory.

For me, it's almost like trying to remember a dream that I had the night before. So a good way to start remembering things is to write them down. Like have a journal everyday or days that you do exciting things.
