Amnesia:forgetting.
✵Amnesia: What is amnesia? The medical term is temporary memory impairment. Simply put, amnesia is a temporary impairment of the brain's ability to think (or retrieve) information. So the symptoms will go away over time. Dementia, which sometimes looks similar, is the result of severe damage to the whole memory. They are two very different diseases.
✵The causes of amnesia are diverse, the most important reason is age. Recently, the incidence of amnesia tends to be younger, but compared with young people, middle-aged and elderly people over 40 are more likely to suffer from amnesia. The best memory occurs around the age of 20, and then brain function begins to decline gradually. Memory begins to decline formally around the age of 25, and memory declines with age, so it's not surprising that people in their 20s and 30s are plagued by amnesia. Besides, there is an external cause of amnesia. Constant stress and tension can cause brain cells to tire, which worsens amnesia. Excessive smoking, drinking, and vitamin deficiencies can cause temporary memory deterioration.
