What is it?

Executive dysfunction forgetfulness is a glitch in your brain's management system. It specifically impacts your working memory. This is the part of your brain that holds onto information long enough to use it.

Signs & Symptoms

Losing your keys seconds after putting them down.
Forgetting a task the moment someone speaks to you.
Feeling like your mind is a sieve for small daily details.

Why does this happen?

The Science Bit involves your prefrontal cortex. This is the boss of your brain. In ADHD brains, this area has lower levels of dopamine. This makes it very hard to filter out noise and lock in short term memories. It is like trying to run a powerful computer with very little RAM memory.

The Action Plan

Try breaking down your next task like this to overcome the block:
1

Acknowledge the glitch

1m

Stop and tell yourself that your brain just had a small RAM error.

2

Trace your steps

2m

Physically move back to the last place you remember your thought.

3

Write it down

2m

Immediately put the thought into a phone app or on a notepad.

Stop fighting your brain.
