Due to a situation I find myself in, my daily habits have changed to a more simple daily schedule.
However, recently, I’ve been noticing that I struggle to recall certain events that happened the previous day:
What I ate for breakfast, what I did at work, what I learned in my classes, etc.
I don’t know how long this has been happening. Am I just overthinking it?
That’s what I was going to ask. I’m real close to 50 and the truth is, we start breaking down eventually (mentally and physically), no matter how well we take care of ourselves. It’s slow but inexorable. There are so many variables that you’ll see older people with a huge range of capabilities, but generally speaking there aren’t any 80 year olds out there functioning as well as they did in their 30’s.
Slow but inexorable, lovely.
