...just about all of these but "Who am I?" apply to me. I am very forgetful. "Who are you?" is what I ask people I haven't seen in a few years though, because I have forgotten they exist. My memory is not good with people.
You terrible person!El Poncho said:
I constantly forget what day it is, and sometimes I forget names.
I'd like to choose ALL. But I never ask who someone is (I forget names, not faces or astrological signs... odd) I also know who I am and where I am. But the point is: I have autism. If I'm having a bad day, I need some daily rituals to keep me focused and calm. If someone takes my stuff and replaces it. I might panic when I need it. My dad took the newspaper once. I doubted the fact that it might be yesterday after all and that I slepted a day to soon? No? Perhaps just an hour... GAH!
A lot of people are born in Spring or Summer. I have friends who are born on the same day! It means that I have to remember all those birthdays! (I have quite a lot of friends.)

When it comes to memory I can be a strange one.
You see, I can remember names, faces, locations and long answers to tests quite well, it's basic stuff that I can't remember.
These include.
Walking, into a store planning to buy something then forgetting what that something is.
(This happened during school sometimes.) Raised my hand to the teacher to ask a question, only to forget what I was going to say.
Finally the one I do the most, going to search for something on the internet, only to forget what that something is.
Of course, this doesn't happen frequently only on my of days.

Forgetting is a psychological defense for me. I can't forgive, but I go to great lengths to forget...
I wish I wasn't paranoid of being taken advantage of while drunk so I can drink my brain clean of memories.
Too bad that will never happen.

I'm good at remembering names and I am capable of keeping track of what day it is, but I still forget the odd birthday. Thankfully, my family is small so there aren't too many to remember. Didn't stop me from forgetting my dad's birthday two years in a row though.
I've never forgotten my birthday, and I tend to ask myself who I am more because I'm having some existential crisis, but otherwise I'm pretty forgetful. It gets so bad that sometimes, if I have to remember to bring something (homework, sunscreen) I put my glasses next to that thing, because I always remember to wear my glasses. Being more or less blind is a pretty good reminder.
