Black Gold!

I walked into a room… and forgot what I went in there for.

It had a purpose, I know it did, but I entered the spare bedroom and froze. Looking around I asked myself, “What the poo poo did I come in here for?” and I slowly walked out confused. An hour later, I went into the kitchen for a paper towel. gently caress! That’s what I went in there for; a new paper towel roll.

Just chuck my brain-forgetting rear end into a ditch out in the middle of nowhere and leave me there. I’m too old for this world now :corsair:

I ordered luscious new gemstones from India and made new earrings for my SA mart thread

Remember my earrings and art are much better than my posting

New stuff starts towards end of page 3 of the thread
I figure at least my youth was before the world (my part I mean, US) was so extremely lovely as its becoming now

It's a small comfort but you'll take anything at this point

My mom always said that if it was really important, you would have remembered, so don't sweat it.

And if it was, it will come back to you later one way or another.

Can try frigging around with your neural pathways, can be a bit of spaghetti up there with the connections and weighting.

You came there for a reason. "What was it?" If you just keep hammering that same question, you get nowhere. So work backwards, involve senses, emotions, try to find the branching pathway that leads to whatever your motivation was that you didn't record properly since you were probably thinking of other probably more important or more interesting stuff at the time.

Work backwards is what I actually heard for this sort of thing. Like back slowly out of the room, look around at the other room as you exit the first room, keep working backwards, and you'll probably see something that'll trigger that desire.

then just yell it out loud over and over until you get the thing you want.

Yeah I have no idea how people with undiagnosed ADHD are supposed to know when they are getting old

Just thinking about how my mother used to try to teach me strategies for holding/recovering thoughts because it was pretty much daily I was about to say something and forgot what it was or forgot why I had gone into my room or whatever

Wow honestly if anything I am LESS senile now than when I was 10

I got in trouble the last time I used this technique and upon realization the mantra was "FIND A SECRET PLACE TO CRANK OFF!" over and over.

So it may be advisable to keep the memory trigger in the internal voice until you can find a lockable storage closet.

The Article posted:

Psychologists believe that walking through a door and entering another room creates a “mental blockage” in the brain, meaning that walking through open doors resets memory to make room for a new episode to emerge. This is generally referred to as the doorway effect.

I have a room where that always happens when I enter it. The odd thing is that I could've sworn it was just a closet before. Also, I sometimes hear strange noises coming from it at night.
