Find a piece of string that you can tie around your waste and attach it to a small pocket notebook that you can use to jot down the important information you will need to remember such as chores, tasks, and other goals that you need to remember. Every time you forget something, be sure to go for the notebook every time. Be as organized as possible and make sure that you check off tasks that you have completed as well as date the start and end time for each duty you have decided to perform.I am in cognitive rehab to fix my memory loss, but my short term memory is deteriorating too fast for the treatment to work. It's starting to interfere with everything I do. I'm trying to learn Brawl, I'll constantly forget what happened seconds ago, and can't react. I'm trying to watch Boardwalk Empire. But I can't recall what's happened by the time a new episode rolls around. It's very depressing, and if anyone has any coping strategies, I would be in your debt.
If you want to try to remember short term events, try building them around the long term memory that you can recall. Make a list of all the things that you can remember off the top of your head. Then list one thing you want to remember and add it next to something that it is closely related. Try to think of the short term memory in relation to the long term memory that is already established. Constantly recall the list from top to bottom and bottom to top. Once the short term subject has become ingrained, then try adding another topic to the list.
Hope you remember to check your previous post.
