I almost have the opposite of this, I’ll have an image of where everything goes in my head, and if it’s not there I’m like that T Rex in Jurassic park staring right at it but not seeing it.
I can definitely see the frustration and difficulty that would cause for you.
it can be both for us. We can remember where various trinkets are that we placed somewhere months ago if we want, to but the thing is we won’t remember to want to remember that.
Example: my spare lens cap for my camera is currently in my cupboard in a bag full of rechargable batteries and some spare USB C cables.
Example 2: My journal in which I’m supposed to write in daily has become a part of the table and therefore I don’t acknowledge it being there at all. I can walk past it and look at it but not see it multiple times a day.
Example 3: I need reminders on my phone to call my parents from time to time because if they’re not in my immediate environment they sort, don’t exist in my mind.
My mind works purely on “if I can’t see it, it doesn’t exist, until I’m reminded of it by something else” with an additional qurik that seeing isn’t just looking, because things can simply become a part of the enviorment.
Thanks
