Who doesn't have memory issues?

[BlueKota]

even younger people? When my Mom was in her early forties she used to call me by cousins' name, my sister's name, and sometimes even my father's and dogs' name, before ending with, "Whatever the hell your name is."

I am going to be 62, and I regularly go to the pantry for my dog's food when I know I keep it in the hall closet.

A friend of mine, who was a degreed sociologist told me, that laspes of memory aren't always age or degenerative disease related, but also could be because you're overloading your mind , by trying to multi task, or the opposite too, you're not stimulating your brain enough, so it's gets bored and tunes out. That last one used to happen to me a lot in grade school. Exhaustion can also be a factor.

Only qualified professionals should be the ones giving their opinions about the cause of memory loss in specific individuals.
