One more point - I have never been a person who remembers everyone’s name - even in my young adulthood. So in my 70’s it’s become a standing joke with friends and family. Proper names are commonly out of reach. But it’s different. I don’t feel like they are on tip of tongue. They instead are akin to being behind a closed door I can’t open. But it doesn’t frustrate me like the current situation does. Not sure if that adds insight.

@pbpam Ha, ha. Same with me about remembering names. It did become worse as I got older but I just let it go and try not to let the failure in retrieval of proper names bug me. If it's important enough to me I come up with a strategy or device that will help me to remember.

Yes, I can understand what you mean about the frustration with what's happening at the present.
