What is Forgetfulness Disease?

Although forgetfulness seems to be a disease that is often associated with old age, this is an incomplete belief. It can be seen at any age due to many physical or psychological disorders.  To understand forgetfulness disease , it is necessary to first look at the brain’s process of receiving and storing information.

Memory, where all information is stored, consists of two parts: long-term and short-term memory. Newly learned information is first stored in short-term memory. If the information here is not repeated and encoded and stored in long-term memory, it will be forgotten. Data that is encoded repeatedly is stored in long-term memory. Memories, experiences, memories all reside in long-term memory. The part of the brain called the hippocampus carries out the transfer to long-term memory . If data cannot move from short-term memory to long-term memory, it means that the hippocampus is not working properly.

What are the symptoms of forgetfulness disease?

The causes of forgetfulness may vary from person to person. The decisive factor here is the patient’s history. Each patient’s forgetfulness may relate to other areas of his or her life. For example, while someone may forget names, what they ate or drank, another may forget what they need to do.
