This time I am more worried.Read the following exchange between me and She who must be obeyed.
Me: "Have you seen my mobile phone, I've looked everywhere"?
She. "What 's that in your hand",
Me " Oh, how did that get there?"
She. " Maybe you had something to do with it".
Me. " I wish you wouldn't keep moving my things about."
She " You're going Gaga mate".
Question is She right?

That made me laugh! Maybe you are going 'gaga', or maybe you were just a little absent minded. Sometimes the harder you look for something, the harder it is to find it, because you're looking in all the unlikely places and neglecting the obvious places. If you are really worried, then go to a doctor for a checkup. Hopefully, you'll be reassured, but if not, you'll at least be able to get help. Good luck!

Well if you are I must be too (and I'm only forty seven yet). Last week I couldn't find my reading glasses, as usual I'd pushed them up on top of my head. Later on reading in bed my other half was laughing, I was reading with one pair of glasses on and the other on the top of my head. I said they must be like buses, can't find one then you find two together. Just as well I didn't push the other pair on the top of my head as well I'd have been convinced I'd lost both (or he'd move them). So don't worry, you're not on your own I must be gaga too!

Ha! At YOUR age I think your mate should be thankful you remember how to use the mobile phone! So what if sometimes you might have a wee bit of trouble finding it?!
("She who must be obeyed"...I wonder just what I have to DO to MY family, to get them to start calling ME that!)

It might have been a senior moment for you, but I've always been like that. How many times I've gone upstairs only to stand in bewilderment as to why I went there, then as soon as I get downstairs I remember. I lose my car keys, my mobile phone, even my my car in Tesco's car park.

No you are not going gaga. you are perfectly normal. The stresses of modern life take their toll on everyone. Keep taking the tablets and try not to worry.
If i had been your good lady i would have said "Try ringing yourself and you will find the phone!"

There is nothing wrong, its part of life and the age it starts varies. The other day we I went for a drive and was part way there when I realised I hadn't got the car. You do feel stupid walking down the middle of the road.

Wow, I see what you mean, but maybe living with "She who must be obeyed" might be a little distracting.
But once again, I think we all have these moments. We find our sunglasses on top of our heads, car keys in our hand, or our shopping list in the toilet.

It does sound a bit worrying. However, a few months ago I left a friend's house and drove off in my car. Half way home I suddenly panicked and thought 'Oh no, where are my car keys'. I'm not that old either!

Possible - get checked out at the docs if similar things keep occurring.
Other than that learn to relax more and stop rushing around.

Same answer you're a man, not a senior moment , not you're going nuts. It's a manism, ask questions first, accuse someone else of moving it or not telling you , then figure it out.
