You are not alone. For myself all senses are affected. Can't reproduce a song, smell or taste, just in the moment I hear/taste it and the link to the memory is created. Also emotions are fully affected and not linked to any memorie. I have learned to read the gestures made by others to understand them. It's like a game and I don't feel anything recognizing/seeing emotions from others - so I have to play happiness or sadness. In the past a lot of people told me I'm not empathic. It's pretty difficult to get accepted.
Hey Patrick, you are not alone. I love programming but struggling all the time. I am not even able to remember the commands -> sometimes commands that I have used more than thousand times. Cause I know this command exist and I am able to describe it, I use Google to remember it. Object orientated programming is less a problem for me, because it's logical for me. But remembering all the method names and attributes is a mess - scheme's of the objects on a paper help me. A great thing is, if have solve a problem and after a day I'm trying to solve it again, I will create a entire new solution.
Sad to hear and read your both posts 😔 thanks for your reply – I wish you some nice Christmas days – take your time! To find a way out for a short time while reading is a nice thing. Are you able to recall the hole story or only some main points, are you feeling empathetic to the characters?
I feel you entirely Marcin, thanks for your reply - for me it's exactly the same. I tons of photos and I always try to get a beautiful shot. Im divorced as well - it's sad to hear. It's like you say. In the actual situation it breaks me.
I have the same problems, it's difficult. If the person has another hairstyle or anything else since the last meet, most of the time I let them greet me first. If it's not to far away we met each other, I am able to regognize the person by his/her voice - but in the most cases without a name. What learned to do, is to play the game "oh wow you're here, long time not seen" without trying to use a name. In over 90 % it works well and the other person did not realize that I can't remember him/her. Didn't found any other way yet to compensate this behavior.
