Since my main lemmy’s password is locked behind Bitwarden, I had to make a new account to post. Originally I started using passwords manager because I keep forgetting passwords. But my paranoid ass is so worried that someone saw me typing my Bitwarden master password so I feel the urge to change it. So now I forgot the new master password.

The password is a few word passphrase generated from a keyword. Like an acoustic poem, if you know what I mean. I know all the words except one word, and I know the starting letter of the word, just forgot the exact word. 🥲 Guess I’m gonna flip through the dictionary to find a word that feels right.

Um so… has anyone experienced memory issues? I’m a young adult (18-25 age range), so I feel so strange to be forgetting stuff so early. Like do young people normally forget things?

    Not sure if it applies to you, but weed is bad for your memory.

      I don’t use weed, any type of illegal drugs, alcohol, or tobacco or vape. But um… recently I’ve been eating take-out food from a Chinese restaurant and I drink a lot of soda. I’m feeling depressed af and just wanted to “live” a bit before the world gets fucked by climate change. Also, as an American, the 2024 election seems terrifying, some fascist might win again after the failed insurrection/auto-coup attempt in January 6 2021. Kinda feeling hopeless for the future.

        Hey man, I’m not a professional at all, but maybe you should stay off social media for a bit (1-2 weeks) and just enjoy life without worrying about the climate, politics, news, etc. They heavily impacted my mental health, but once I took a good long break, started working out more, went on hikes on occasion, went outside and read in the nature, etc. You can also go and hang out with friends / partner more often (if you do not already live with them)

        Social media itself is a constant negative loop (for better or for worse) and you need breaks sometimes. Hope you can get out of this hell hole, my friend.
