It's normal to forget things occasionally, such as where you put your keys. But if you're worried that your forgetfulness is a sign of a more serious problem, take this test to find out if you may be suffering from short-term memory loss. Think carefully before responding to each question, and answer as honestly as possible.

I am soooo forgetful!

Based on this test I have mild problem.
I definitely know that anxiety and especially panic makes me forget things. When I'm in total peace (rarely) I feel my brain works full speed and I am surprised how well I remember then.
