Memory problems(I think I’ve always had them..)?

Can barely remember yesterday. Last year? Barely anything.

Yesterday I…*draws a blank*

It was Friday? Wow.

So I went to school…

No! I went to first period, then the doctor’s. Went home after that and slept because the previous night I got an hour of sleep.

That took…five minutes to remember? I can’t remember what happened when I woke up.

Two days ago all I remember is my mother saying I could sleep in, but I said no because I needed to go to first period for a review.

Three days ago…nothing. All the know is that I had to have gone to school.

This year I’m in class with someone I apparently had class with in freshman year. I don’t remember him, or the things he said we did.

One of my friends said sorry for how her friend treated me freshman year. I only remember she pants-ed me once, but my friends says she was really mean to me.

I can’t remember my last birthday, three months ago.

What did I get? Don’t remember.

I’m seventeen now, and, as you can see, am not "dumb".

I just can’t remember events of my life.

I can remember some things. My brother stealing my friends moped, putting a knife to my throat. I’ve had three girlfriends(I’m not the type to date, seems so stupid when they all end during the teenage years). And many other things.

But what I remember is fragmented, and barely what I should be able to remember.

Names blow right by me, it takes me a while to remember(days). I’m good with faces.

I do remember, say, Halo maps. I pick them up quick and never forget.

Ways to beat games, I know them. Shortcuts and tricks, I remember them.

What did you do yesterday? Um….

I do NOT do drugs…my brother did. I don’t like anything that has to do with my brother.

So, to end this rant.

Is something wrong? Could be be a defense mechanism caused by abuse by my brother? (Who is now out of the house, thankfully.)

Am I just not that good with remembering events?
