I am 19 and my memory is terrible ! help, what to do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
19 with poor memory: Several questions come to mind. Are you on any medications? What is your stress level? Cortisol is the stress hormone and can adversely affect your memory and recall. Sleep deprivation can decrease your memory, too. How is your nutrition? Could you have a reaction to certain foods? There are many things that can be affecting your memory at your age, and most of them are easy enough to fix.
