I get the "doorway effect" going from my living room to the kitchen, and there's no doorway between them. They're basically the same room, just separated by one having tile vs carpet and a breakfast bar that I have to walk around. So whatever this "update" our brains are doing is, it isn't restricted to doorways or small openings that we pass through. It may be the breakfast bar standing in for the doorway, but I feel it's more linked to the difference in purpose I've given these two areas. They may be physically the same room, but in my mind I'm moving to a new "place".

@mwater_moon2865 Жыл бұрын
Your brain recognizes patterns, and if one room has carpet vs the other having tile, that is VERY much a pattern change. We bought a house from a family that had a partially blind child and the rooms were painted VERY bright colors, and the carpet color changed in each room too. They included a carpet allowance in the price so we'd be able to change it out but the installer was delayed and we were painting the house ourselves so I didn't mind the extra time to work before the new stuff was coming in. I have never in my LIFE had so much trouble trying to keep track of what I intended to do next when traveling through that house, despite it being a very open floor plan. But once the carpet was replaced to be uniform that vanished, despite not having finished all the painting yet.

Another trick I've been noticing when trying to scale back how much I crave snacks out of boredom while working from home is imagining a large meal like a stew and seeing if I still feel hungry. Most of the time I suddenly feel sickened like my body is telling me "Ew no, I'm not THAT hungry." If this is the case, was I really hungry to start with? Probably not. If it seems like a good idea though, maybe I am hungry and I should have an orange or some other food that's kind of a pain to eat because there's some small amount work or effort involved. Usually I don't even finish it.

One thing I've found is sometimes its texture. Like doritos or chips most people could eat and eat. But if I do one of little 1oz 140cal takis snack packs between the crunch and the spice I feel 'satisfied' where as I legit could go through like half a bag of Doritos or like salt n vinegar kettle chips and and still feel I could eat more. Idk if its because they add more addictive chemicals then the Takis or what but I can get a 46pack of the 1oz Takis and it lasts like 6-7 months between my brother and I eating them. If chips/Doritos or any of that's in the house even as a multipack they don't last a month.

It’s been years since I had a lesson, but I can still remember what my muscles are supposed to be doing - even though I no longer have the strength, balance, or flexibility to properly execute the process. I even remember some of the choreography from my recital from eight years ago, even though I can’t really do it anymore just because of the physical state of my body. It’s so weird bc it’s like my brain knows exactly which signals to send, and then it’s just a matter of my muscles not being able to do it

When I know I'm going to forget something, I definitely announce it out loud. I want to get as many senses and people involved as possible, in hopes that one of them will remember it. So I'll make a big announcement to my family that I am putting the box on this particular shelf, saying it out loud several times while hearing myself say it and watching myself do it. Maybe I will remember the feeling of reaching up, or the sound of saying the words, or maybe telling myself this is something to pay attention to will be enough. If all that fails, someone else watched me put the box on the shelf and they also heard it was something to remember on purpose.

So I have ADHD and ASD, and as such my working memory is absolutely ATROCIOUS. What I would love to find out is specifically how brains like mine create and work with event models, because while I have definitely experienced forgetting things after walking through a door, I much more often will just forget when I haven't even necessarily moved. And it's not always because I'm taking in new information, sometimes I will literally forget what I was talking about /as I'm talking about it/. Given that ADHD and ASD so wildly change the fundamental way my brain is wired and how it functions in every cognitive aspect, I'm infinitely curious about how things like event models affect it/it affects them. We don't have a ton of knowledge about either yet, a lot of the information we've learned about them is relatively recent and there's just not a lot of studies being done that include ADHD or autistic people, so I doubt I'll know any time soon but it's fun to think about.

What about when you clearly remember something having happened and then think, "wait, is that a real memory, or was that a dream I had?" Then there's the opposite: I remember my dreams occasionally. Recently, I woke up and started looking up "congestive heart failure" on my tablet and checking symptoms. I "remembered" that a doctor had recently said I had it. Then gradually, I realized I had dreamt it. In fact, someone several years ago *had* thought I had CHF because of certain medications I take, but it's not true. Still, I was convinced of it for a few minutes after I woke up that morning. I even checked my online medical record just in case, but it wasn't there.

Some fascinating memory-related things I've seen in my own life: My sister & I were very close growing up, and close in age (1.5 years). Like, once she came in my bedroom & asked if she could borrow "that shirt" and I pulled out the one she wanted, and there was nothing previously significant to us about it (nothing that made it *that* shirt). Anyway, all my life I've had moments where I'm telling someone something that happened to me and then suddenly realize, with embarrassment, that it happened to my sister, not me, and I wasn't even present. Yet I recall it so vividly - then again, I tend to visualize stories I read or am told. (Eventually, I learned to just keep telling the story as if it happened to me, as long as it didn't really matter who it happened to. Why disturb a good story, right?) The other thing was when my dad's Alzheimer's was pretty advanced, it changed his taste in foods. He'd always loved pizza, pistachios, and Sen-Sens (a weird candy they don't make anymore - and the last packet I ever bought is buried with him, unopened). Well, at this point, he didn't anymore. I gave him some pistachios, and he seemed to have never seen them before, and approached them like he was trying something new (he was nonverbal at this point). But he seemingly-instinctively opened the shell and removed the nut. Put it in his mouth, made a face, and took it back out, which made me sad...but it was really interesting that he didn't know he knew the nut, and yet knew how to eat it. I guess that's the muscle memory!

Going into your email inbox also simulates the same effect as a doorway. Plus there are flashing alerts when you get to an inbox (relatively speaking). It would be better if inboxes asked you what you were planning to do when you got there, before alerting you, and let you know about changes after you've gotten started.

As a person who, when Younger never had any problem of keeping track of my "stuff"(keys, glasses, mobile, wallet..etc.) , but who now has s"tarted to experience forgetfulness", I have adopted the strategy of having "dedicated places" for "my stuff". How ever this is (imho) a double edged sword. Because this has made the action of "putting away" my stuff a more "automatic action". AAND ALSO, now the absolute vast majority of my memories of my "where my stuff is",is when it is in its "dedicated spot"... These two things mean that if I don't find "my stuff" where it is supposed to be, then I have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA where it is... Because I put it away without "paying attention", since Ive become used to it being an "automatic action", AAND when I try to recall "where did I put it" or "where I saw it last", my memories are so dominated by all my memories of the "thing" when it's in it's "dedicated spot" , that I can't even "picture" it being anywhere else.... Really annoying.

I start dreaming before completely falling asleep. And have multiple dreams that merge into each other, changing, as if I'm changing channels on the tv. And yes, lucid dreams. Some nights I swear I didn't sleep at all because of the dreams ☹ I feel more tired in the morning(after dreaming so often in one night) than if I don't dream or even if I just stay awake.

This is so very true. Some of them I have room for dessert. However, in the past number of years, I have changed my diet and the way I eat. (which I’m slowly reverting back to my old eating habits… ) to put things in perspective, I’m 76. It has been a struggle to maintain a healthy diet and activity combination. Remove the activity, and the dynamics of my diet changes, not for the better. Therefore, I can only assume a psychological. As per room for dessert, over the past 10 years, I can remember several times where it I did not have room for dessert. The last time, was added dinner at a very fine restaurant, famous for the quality of food. The restaurant lived up to the expectations, considering I just handed the menu to maître d’ and asked him to select a meal for me. It was fantastic. I had been looking forward to the desert because according to reviews there, a chocolate cake best in town, if you really love chocolate. Of course, I had to taste it. I did have one fork of the cake not even a mouth full just enough to taste. It was disappointing that I could not enjoy our entire piece without leaving, feeling sick due to being over full. (I do not know how long I can keep up the honesty to myself at this point I’m wavering. A few days ago, I was out for dinner, reach the point of being full, but I still had room for ice cream. On the way home and that evening I was uncomfortable because I ate too much.)

Doorway effect, I got that... I often rise from my reading to check stuff on the net, but when I'm at the desired site, I've forgotten what I wanted to check out. As for dreams, my theory is that they go so easily because we don't classify them as important enough. At some time in my life, I made the effort to remember and note down the dreams I had... and I started remembering them more often. Whan I had to stop doing that, I also stopped remembering them so well. I no longer ever lose my keys, the keyring is chained to my trousers so I can't go out without them (or I'm going out in my jammies which might indicate a real problem)

So I take a long time to fall asleep.. but I feel like I sleep peacefully. And I remember my dreams a lot. To the point that I have recurring themes and can even revisit and further the story in a dream.. like episodes. Although I don’t control it.. I’m just along for the ride. However my partner sleeps the moment his head hits the pillow. And he almost never remembers his dreams.
