How can I stop my excessive brain farts?!


Question: How can I stop my excessive brain farts!?
If you have an excellent memory, please help me out!.
My memory is horrible, people tell me all the time!. This is how bad it is!.
My brother was telling me about Gentle Giant, and how he was going to watch a concert of theirs later!.
5 min later, I ask him what he was going to do after watching the concert, but I couldn't remember the name "Gentle Giant" for the life of me!. I thought about it for a few minutes, and had to look up "progressive rock bands" on the internet to get their name because I didn't want to ask my brother and look stupid!. We talk about Gentle Giant often, I don't know why I can't remember things!.
This happens so frequently!.!.!.Like someone will mention Otis Spann, and talk about his awesome piano playing, and then a few minutes later I'll forget the name of the guy we were talking about, and won't remember it for days!.
My memory is so bad, people think I am a ditz or that I do drugs!.
Please help!Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Sounds like you are describing 'word finding difficulties'!. People with word finding diffiuclties know the words, but they just can't find them quick enough in conversations!. Does it feel like the word is 'at the tip of your tongue'!? It doesn't have anything to do with your intelligence, you're not stupid!! Try googling word finding difficulties and see if it sounds like the same thing you experience!.

If you can get a referral to a speech and language therapist they can do some assessments to see if they can give you exercises (like brain training) which should help!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

it seems like your bad memory is based on forgetting names in particular, try visualising the name- think of Giant rocking out in a gentleman's suit smiling gently lol, what does the name otis spann conjure in your head!? in me for example i think of a crappy puppet called otis the aardvark so i could think of an aardvark playing the piano with a spanner or siting on some spam or being measured!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
