Have you been doing some unintelligent things just in these past couple months exclusively?

I was at the store and I needed toothbrushes I knew a few days before I went shopping but when I was there I didn't want the bag to be too heavy and it never dawned on me that a couple toothbrushes don't weigh that much and the thought of toothbrushes never crossed my mind.



I did an origami flower and was coloring in the flower with a red marker but it was damaged and I did not get to color it properly. A few days later I looked over and noticed my red dry erase marker and couldn't figure out why the thought to use that red marker never crossed my mind.



I want to know if this strange phenomena is centered around me or if people all across America are experiencing similar bouts of stupidity just in these past couple of months. Completely out of character for them. Thank you.

I highly doubt it's a recent phenomenon - or a phenomenon at all. Everybody is absent minded at times, especially if they are tired, malnourished, or under stress. It could also be due to fluctuating hormones or a withdrawal from cigarettes, drugs, or caffeine.

The best thing to do, from my own personal experience, is to relax, get a good night's sleep, and eat well. I find that regular exercise and regularly taking multi vitamins and dietary supplements also helps me stay clear headed. It could also be dehydration, so make sure to drink at least eight cups of water a day - more if you are overweight, working out, or in very hot or very cold weather.





(On an unrelated note, phenomena is the plural form of phenomenon.)
Reply:Everyone has little incidences of absent mindedness. It's especially common if you're not getting enough sleep or are worried about some current or recent event in your life.
