It's more a case of lack of focus. Most of the time, I'll misplace things. And I'll later find it there where intially placed it, but when I did put it there... my mind is elsewhere. If I do focus on something, I cant get distracted and I'll remember it forever. I'm great with remembering phone numbers. Sometimes I'll dial it once and remember it the next week. BUT MY THINGS ARE ALWAYS MISPLACED. It's really frustrating. Other than consumption of Ginko, are there any other suggestions?

I think it is a type of Attention Defficiency Disorder.If you feel it is severe and so frustrating,please visit a clinical Psychologist.
If you can spend 30 to 45 minutes per day in the morning you can easily cure this problem yourself.Try it!

Seek out an expert oN ADD I have it in my family bigtime and Im recognizing it in what you are saying. You can read "driven to distraction" to find out more while waiting for an appointment. Natural methods are to increase exercise, use helpers to remind you and dont beat yourself up for being that way. chances are you have many assets as well, you just need to get those details worked out and have a way of attacking the deleterious parts of ADD. ADD coaches are also helpful but expensive. Medication can be a real help and can be used safely. Choose activites and jobs that are challenging yet that dont call on your weak areas, rather that focus on your strengths.

Work on word puzzles.
Do zig saw puzzles.
These are simple things that rebuild focus and doesn't involve drugs. I know, my neurologist suggested these things as mental exercises - and she was right on. Never had any interest doing these things before, now I do!

Could be ADD or other disorder and a medical opinion should be obtained. You could have a vitamin B deficiency or a mineral deficiency, but you need to verify things medically.

Sounds like A.D.D. - I'd seek a medical doctor's advice.
