Extremely poor memory ruining my life and career. please help? is there a way to get better?

Get tested: Learning styles and information processing approaches can help memory encoding, retention and recall. Other factors also interfere with memory such as anxiety, depression and adhd. Physical issues can also be a root cause, as can alcohol or drug use. I would get a physical with bloodwork and then neuropsychological testing.
