Question

How can I never forget to put my textbook or activity book in my backpack for school?

Community Answer

Put your books in your backpack the night before, or put them in an area you will be at in the morning, like the kitchen table. It would be safest to just pack everything away as soon as you're done using it.

Question

How can I remember important points or keywords in a text?

Community Answer

Use a highlighter to make certain points within the text, make things stand out. List the keywords, write them on post-it notes and stick them around your room, take a picture and set it as a wallpaper/screen lock on your phone.

How do I know if I have dementia, because I can't remember anything?
