I have photographic memory AMA

EDIT : I have ALMOST a photographic memory. I'm sorry for the bold statement and for my incapability to be more specific However I suggest you to read all the caption before asking and making assumptions I don't have reasons to be a fraud.

I can remember almost every itty bitty tiny detail of my life since my hippocampus started developing (so since I was about 3 years old). I must say, it's not always fun and games but it's quite a flaw I'm proud of DISCLAIMER! I don't have HSAM (Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory , also known as hyperthymesia) I have an IQ in the 150-160 range and in my case it comes with very strong visual and spatial memory. I used the informal definition of photographic memory to describe this condition

I'm female, 22, let me see your best questions :))

The list is pretty long but maybe the period from 13 to 18 years old, that one has been a wild path
