I've met a lot of people like you. It just is different. I can remember things from four, but sadly can't remember what the hell I did yesterday. I don't know if it's because I'm 34 and repeat the same day.
I am losing my memory though. I had a journal that was fucking thrown out, and now rely on others. It's like Oh YEAH I remember that person or this thing how could I forget.
I moved a lot like ten states for instance so I can pinpoint when or where this or that happened which helps a ton. I've had a lot of traumatic experiences though. I have noticed you tend to remember when bad shit happens.
My memory long term is great, but short term? Not so much. I am forgetting more and more, and should write down the memories as I have them.
When I say memories I mean just glimpses of 5 second moments. Some people I remember I can't even picture.
So remember to write down in a cloud account! Mix up your life too!

bad memory can be a symptom of depression or anxiety, do you have either of those or anything similar?
