A lack of sleep is known to cause forgetfulness. However, this reason resorts back to stress, as many people often find themselves missing out on sleep when they are stressed. When we are tired, we often do not think clearly. Taking a nap during the day is a really wonderful way for you to refresh your mind and, hopefully, your memory as well. Due to our lifestyles which put us constantly on the run, there is a good chance that your forgetfulness at such a young age may be due to a lack of sleep, stress or both.
Reasons You May Be Forgetful at a Young Age - Poor Nutrition
If your diet is not well-balanced, including essential vitamins and nutrients, then you are more likely to experience memory loss at a young age than someone with a very well-balanced diet. Even more importantly, however, if you consume a large amount of alcohol or take medications on a regular basis, there is a good chance that you may experience forgetfulness under the age of 30. Of course, you will often not remember things while you are drunk, as you will automatically be less observant and aware to your surroundings.
Reasons You May Be Forgetful at a Young Age - Physical or Emotional Trauma
Although it is not known to be a leading cause of memory loss among people under the age of 30, it is definitely safe to say that you may experience forgetfulness if you have gone through physical or emotional trauma. Physical trauma, typically to the brain, is especially known to cause memory loss. Emotional trauma, including sexual abuse that one may endure as a child or the death of a close friend, is also known to cause memory loss. In emotional trauma cases, it may be best to find yourself a therapist. In physical trauma cases, there is not always something that can be done about it. However, it is important to realize that both of these factors can cause forgetfulness at a young age.
These are just some of the most common reasons that you may be experiencing memory loss or forgetfulness at a young age. Of course, it is important to keep in mind that there are so many other reasons for memory loss at a young age. The author of this article is not a medical professional, so it is important for you to seek the evaluation of your doctor if you feel that you have begun to experience memory loss or forgetfulness.

I'm still unsure what's wrong with me. My roommates think it's from losing the girl of my dreams, but I don't think so. It seem that the harder I try not to forget something, the more likely it is I forget. Getting worse.

i already talked to my doc and she didnt give me any treatment or medication not even diet.
i bet i only have 40 years to go not even more unless she would recommend me to cut it off(surgery)
These are all good reasons you could be forgetful at a young age. Great job!
