I have always thought that I have a very terrible memory, but on a second though I realize that I remember things very well, even the daydreams I have on a regular basis.
I have… How is it called? "Maladaptive daydreaming"?
What really happens is that I have become accustomed to mistrusting my memory because of how difficult it is for me to distinguish whether what I remember really happened or whether I imagined it.
I usually don’t think much of it because I assume it doesn’t cause me any big problems, but maybe this memory thing is a wake-up call…
Along the same lines, A lot of times I’ll think of saying/doing something but then end up second guessing myself so much that I have to look it up just to confirm I’m not wrong. Then I feel even more stupid for not believing myself the first time.
