What is going on with me? Have I entirely lost the plot?

I showed up to my appointment a week early and was confused because I swore it was this Wednesday. It's actually next Wednesday. I felt embarrassed and rather stupid. The cherry on top was walking to an identical car and actually sitting in it wondering why all these extra objects were inside my car. It dawned on me this was someone else's car and spotted my own in front of another building further down in the business complex. I locked the door to the other car and made a move to my own. I can't believe I've become so stupid and lost. I'm having a hard time remembering appointment dates and times. I'm having issues remembering where I parked my car. I've been feeling lost.

You need a reliable calendar. I think this happens to everyone to a certain extent. Just the other day, I went to the grocery store at closing time. According to my kitchen clock, I had an hour before closing time. Hopped in my car, and saw that I had even more time that I had originally thought. Stopped and wandered around another store. Then got to the grocery store wondering why they'd closed early. The clerk helped me realize that the time went forward an hour, and I never did set my clocks. 🤪 Good thing I've been off work this week

@iamnikki I usually go by my phone’s time but the clock in the car didn’t get set so sometimes that confuses me.

@cherokeepatti same, I don't usually look at the others much, paired with the fact that I haven't worked this week, so I never thought to change the clocks.

Time to write a will and power of attorney for a relative, so they can take care of your affairs when you forget how to. Be careful who you choose though, because once they get a sniff of fortune they often turn mean. Best wishes.

I would talk to your doctor about what is going on. They can give meds that will slow down memory loss....or they can look into whether this is just a side effect of a med you are already on.

I got up one morning and went to work to clock in and it was my day off. Didn’t have a fixed schedule every week it changed.

@cherokeepatti I did that once when I worked at that store we both worked at... Except, if I'm not mistaken, I had clocked in and started working. Manager was like ' aren't you off today'? But you can stay if you want... I checked the schedule, was off, and zoomed outta there
