Talk to Neuro Physician on Memory And Learning Difficulties ✅ ( Concern About Memory And Learning Memory Problems During Studies Difficulty Memorizing Study Material Request For Evaluation Of Memory And Learning Prob

Asking for Self, Male, 24 years old, Rawalpindi

Assalamu Alaikum, Doctor.

I am a Pharm.D student studying under an annual examination system, similar to the MBBS annual system.

I have been experiencing problems with my memory and learning, and I would like your advice.

During my matriculation and FSc, I was able to memorize my studies much more easily. We used to write our lessons by hand, take regular tests, and repeatedly recall what we had learned, so I could remember the material quite well. Forgetting it after some time seemed normal.

However, since starting university, things have changed. Sometimes I struggle to memorize even a few pages, even after spending a lot of time studying. I am not sure whether this is because my study method has changed, because we no longer have regular written tests and active recall, or because there may be an underlying problem affecting my memory or brain function.

Many of my classmates are able to memorize the same material much more quickly than I can. I often need about five times more effort and study time to learn the same content, and even then, I still find it difficult to remember.

I would appreciate it if you could evaluate my symptoms and let me know whether this could be related to a vitamin deficiency, a medical condition, or another cause. If necessary, please advise me on what tests or examinations I should undergo.

Thank you for your time and guidance.

You should see a clinical psychologist who will perform a battery of tests like MST, 4mountains or CANTAB batteries. This will test your memory and recall adequately.

Sir, thank you very much. I have booked an appointment with a clinical psychologist. Now, let's see what evaluation and tests they recommend.

Please stay in touch. If you have any additional suggestions, I would really appreciate them.

Also, if you think I should have any specific medical tests done, please let me know. If you know of any good clinical psychologist who performs these assessments, or any hospital or clinic where these tests are available, I would be grateful if you could recommend one.

Assalamu Alaikum, Sir.

Thank you very much for your guidance.

Could you please let me know if you know any specialist who performs this type of cognitive or neuropsychological assessment? If you know someone who is available online, I would be very grateful if you could recommend them. If you know a specialist in your city or a clinic that provides these assessments, I would sincerely appreciate it if you could share their name or contact details with me.

I genuinely want to find the root cause of this problem. I am looking for a professional who can carefully evaluate my condition, work with me to identify the underlying cause, and guide me toward the most appropriate solution.

Thank you again for your time and support.

آپ کی پریشانی سمجھ آتی ہے، مگر بیان کردہ کیفیت dementia سے کم اور توجہ، ذہنی دباؤ یا مطالعے کے طریقے سے زیادہ متعلق محسوس ہوتی ہے۔ 24 سال کی عمر، پہلے اچھی تعلیمی کارکردگی اور روزمرہ کاموں میں مسلسل بگاڑ، راستہ بھولنے یا معمول کی ذمہ داریاں نہ نبھا پانے جیسی علامات نہ ہونا dementia کے خلاف جاتا ہے۔ Depression یا شدید anxiety میں توجہ کم ہونے سے نئی معلومات ذہن میں محفوظ نہیں ہوتیں؛ اسے کبھی غیر رسمی طور پر pseudodementia کہا جاتا ہے، جو حقیقی dementia نہیں اور بنیادی مسئلے کے علاج سے بہتر ہو سکتا ہے۔

مطالعے میں active recall، spaced repetition، past papers، ہاتھ سے مختصر notes، 25–40 منٹ کے focused sessions، مناسب نیند، ورزش اور موبائل distractions کم کرنا آزمائیں۔ اگر یادداشت مسلسل بگڑ رہی ہو یا روزمرہ زندگی متاثر ہو تو psychiatristسے assessment کروائیں۔ صحیح طریقۂ مطالعہ اور علاج سے واضح بہتری ممکن ہے۔
