Everyone else is releasing on OT, so why can't I.

I have severe memory loss, I believe that it's due to the 3 years I have been lacking sleep. Lately, I've been in deep research and studying my Theoretical Physics during the Summer, and the next day I would forget the majority I had read. I'm a bit worried that I'll be rendered to forget everything that I will study.

If you knew me, you would know that Physics is my life...What should I do besides sleep efficient hours?

Masturbation can increase mental performance. Give it a try. :)

What's your study enviroment like? It might do with impovements.

It's also better to study a little bit multiple times than a whole lot just a couple of times, if you aren't doing that. Your brain can only process so much new information at a time.

I study within my room.

I try and study the same section multiple times. Also, I study vocabulary words multiple times aswell.

Probably this. You just gota develop a regular schedule where you can get enough sleep. I used to work 2 jobs while getting my BA and I would say nothing can help you study better than getting some good night sleeps. Sounds very cliche I know but that was the only way that works for me

Dont leave it to last few days. Revise bit by bit over time, and don't stay up late or you forget. Trust me, I have been in the same situation for years. Physics is my favourite too.

Actually I have been like this my whole life in relation to reading. Unless the book had peaked my interest 100% I would forget at least 70-90% of what I read. What I started doing in order to remember stuff is taking a ton of notes. The only difference I see here is that you said you love physics and yet still forget. This usually happens to me if I'm not immediately pulled in by the subject. The reason I have replied this is because if I watch something I don't care about it stays with me almost forever. So can it be related to something we both may possibly have and reading?

Get more sleep. Your brain consolidates information when you sleep. Sleep is necessary for things to be filed into your long term memory.

Eat lots of fruit and vegetables with at least 8 hours of sleep a day. This is CRITICAL. As well you might have add you never know so go to a doctor to check. Start with that.

yup, you're screwed lol...but I'm right there with ya, I'm a bit of an insomniac & in grad school for psychology so I was thrilled when I learned about the consolidation process and the necessity of sleep for remembering all the crap I am trying to learn :shock:

Short-term memory loss can come from a lot of stress. As Ms.Swan would say...you need take chill pill.

Buy Harry Loraynes memory power training, it has helped me a lot, I used to remember entire texbooks and speeches using easy techniques mentioned in this course.

Use an SRS (http://www.ichi2.net/anki/index.html)

With it I learnt 2,000 Chinese characters in 2 months and learned all the flags and capitals of all the countries in Europe and Asia in 1.5 weeks ^^

But yeah, you still need sleep.
