My memory is shit, seriously bad. I can remember things from weeks ago hell even years ago at times. However, a majority of times I forget things almost immediately. Normally I can live with it but this time I messed up bad. I lost my paperwork that pretty much says that I exist (I.e. birth, certificates ect.) All in one convenient folder. I know these things are replaceable (even though I don't know how) and that it will just take time but still...
I've always been able to put myself in a leading position with my pears and I even have a great thing going with my now fiancée. However if I can't fix my memory how can I face them and be a great supervisor and husband?
Any idea how I can work around this problem of mine?

You're stressed and further compounding the problem by stressing out about your memory. Deal with your stressors and all will be well

My stress you say? It could be the sudden new move and the pressure from being in charge of all these new people and how I'm getting married next year.
I guess since I lost my papers I've been stressed about my reputation and getting my books and de-stressers into habit. Is kinda killing me.
I actually might be the only thing putting stress on me huh?

You have a lot going on and gotta take care of yourself, OP. Give yourself some much needed down time. Practice relaxation techniques, drink some kava, do some deep introspection. Everyone handles stress differently but in many cases it can actually mimic dementia. Our brains don't have time to hold a memory if we're constantly jumping from one thought to the next. Those neuropathways become stronger the more they're used, even if you're not consciously aware of how much is really on your mind.

Thanks for the thought op I really do actually need some time to just dump my brain and relax, maybe that will help.
