I have always thought that I have a very terrible memory, but on a second though I realize that I remember things very well, even the daydreams I have on a regular basis.

I have… How is it called? "Maladaptive daydreaming"?

What really happens is that I have become accustomed to mistrusting my memory because of how difficult it is for me to distinguish whether what I remember really happened or whether I imagined it.

I usually don’t think much of it because I assume it doesn’t cause me any big problems, but maybe this memory thing is a wake-up call…

    I have never gone to such extremes. I may confuse trivial details, but at the moment I have not reached the point of being forced to ask others about things that I either misremember or don’t remember at all.
