PICK ME!!I'm really good with numbers too. I know all my bank numbers, phone numbers (although I can't associate them to people very often, i do remember them), SIN number, etc. Not to say aloud but with my fingers at a keyboard. I remember conversations well, I remember bad memories extremely well, I am an incredible arguer because I can bring up things people have said previously that contradict what they are saying now and they hate me for that. I have learnt to be very good at remembering behaviours and emotions and conversations relevant to people I love. I dont remember names, telephone numbers (but I used to be good), movie names, jokes, my cash cards, my purse, my sunnies, my underwear once when I was in 3rd grade and discovered my nudity in the middle of a monkey bar flip Yeah I am the same I have a terrible memory for people. I often forget their names or even that I know them if it has been awhile since I saw them last. I also never notice changes like when people get there hair cut or dyed I'm the last to notice, usually someone has to say did you notice my hair cut or hey say you like so and so's hair. LOL I absolutely hate when they say do you notice anything different about me. Obviously I did not so I've learned to stick with the did you lose weight comment. That gets me off the hook a lot. As for useless trivia my head is loaded with it. If someone makes a simpsons reference I'm right there I can complete the dialog form the scene and tell them what episode it was in. I also kick ass at game shows like Jeopardy and Weakest Link. Hmmm, well I remembeer everything from useless trivia to names, faces and telephone numbers. I can argue on almost anything as well because I remember what people say and contradict them. Its really wierd, but I like having such a memory as gifted as mine. My only problem when it comes to forgetting is misplacing things all the time. Or when I'm in rush (which is all the time because I am chronically late for everything) I forget something that I need to bring to wherever I am going.Other than that my memory is brilliant. Yeah! thats like me! I forget what I did yesterday, where my keys are, to do homework etc. but I can remember conversations Ive had with people 7 years ago, and that 10 years ago I went on a bus on a school trip and it had green stripy seats and one seat was backwards, and ridiculous stuff like that!! It really irritates me because it seems so stupid I remember stuff like that and I wouldnt remember my head if it wasnt screwed on!!! Thank you, thank you![]() I think the heading of this topic is so creative, just makes you want to look PICK ME - pretty clever! It's funny, my friends used to bug me about how many useless facts I had in my head (pretty much had a fact or some sort of info for pretty much any situation I encountered). Good luck. The worst thing for me is that I will remember a person's face forever if I have met them but I can't seem to remember any names whatsoever. MattI have a mild inattentive type ADHD, and i have this incredibly good memory. I can remember the wierdest things and details to almost anything. Unless its something that bores me, but other than that I can remember everything. I was just wondering if anyone else on here is like that. I know most people with ADHD forget all the time, and dont get me wrong I forget many little things, and misplace things all the time, but I also have this brilliant memory attached to me. Is there anyone else who is like that? I know 2 other people with ADHD who have excellent memories like me, and I'm just curious to see who else shares this brilliance.
