Thank you for your reply. I'm hoping to get it checked out soon, I just don't know where to start with describing it. Thank you for your advice. I actually tried the three reputation thing today to remember something. I am going to try and talk to a professional about my problem and work on fixing it the best way I can.

I'm 23 and just started the second year of my AA transfer degree. I've wanted to do nursing for a long time but am very hesitant because of my bad memory. I am very forgetful. I can instantly forget something someone tells me to do. I often misplace my phone and instantly forget I had it. These things are holding me back. What if I forget to give medication? What if I forget something important and accidentally make a fatal mistake? What if I instantly forget something and have no time to write it down? Another thing holding me back is speaking up. So, for example, if someone says something to me and it sounds incorrect or off, I won't say anything. I will mentally acknowledge what they said is wrong but assume that they know what they are talking about and I'm the wrong one. Turns out they are wrong most of the time and I should've spoken up. I am working on this but, I'm still scared. What if a doctor puts an order for something in and I only mentally acknowledge that it is wrong but don't speak up? What if this results in something fatal? Would you do nursing if you were me? IDK what else to do.
