I have memory loss mostly short term. I am in my 20's and cant remeb the movie I saw last week with my bf?

Question: My bf has 200 some odd movies on his shelf. I have lived with hime for 8 months and can't remember which ones I have seen until I read the entire back or start it partway. I go to w-mart with him and graba movie off the shelf adn say gee this looks good adn he lovingly reminds me its on his shelf and that I fell asleep through the first half of it. I forget peoples names 2 seconds after i find out what it is. I forget my grocery list. I confuse actors and actress's names and their story lines. I can't remember my bf fav sport team or his favorite player. I can't remember names of cars unless we talk about it a million times. Sometimes when I am tired I get really spacy and even slur my words. My attitude gets really neg and I can't help but snap at people. I think I am a really pos person but this is irritating me. I am young still. Should i seek help or is this a matter of paying more attention and going with the flo? Do I just not consider this import info and discard it?

Answers:
You should get medical evaluation for this. It may be that you need to be more patient with yourself and pay more attention, and if you forgot stuff just re-learn it. Noone is required to remember absolutely everything that goes through their brains. But it may be that you actualy need medical help.

I can't remember a movie I saw yesterday, but that's because it was super-boring and I wasn't really paying attention.

I wonder if you should go to a pdoc and seek an evaluation. Do you have flighty thoughts, and find it hard to concentrate? Could be ADD. Could be a million other things too.
