    Hi @Jazzguitar welcome to the community, do you have a diagnosis of any impairment that would cause the forgetfulness? 

    Do you have much support? What is it that we can help you with?

    Hi Neville .  How you doing so sorry to hear of the issues you suffer with    hope things get  better for you soon  I've noticed you are a musician I'm trying hard to learn the guitar but becoming a bit obsessive can't put the guitar down not sure if it's normal  and just had my first couple of goes at open mic found it very difficult have you perform ed out there regards.
