Which is true about Jill Price?
Correct answer: She was the first person diagnosed with hyperthymesia
Player Say what!?
It would be interesting to know if it's a burden. Are memories constantly running through her mind or only surface when she wants them to?
Alas Ken
At least she always knows where her phone, keys, remote, etc is...

I bought memory foam slippers - in the hope they help me to remember why I went in the kitchen
Tina
Actress from Taxi, Marilu Henner, has it.

I already forgot what were talking about .....
Lunarsea
Exactly how is the accuracy of these memories from decades ago ever verified?
Lulu
It's a blessing NOT to remember everything from your past...jus sayin...
Mark
There are lots of things that I wish I could forget, and no doubt plenty that I'm glad I have. Now. Where did I put my glasses?

Arohanui, "hyper" = accentuated; "thym" = memory; "esia" = syndrome or condition.

Tina, I knew she had it, but could not remember her name - I remembered she was on Taxi, could envisage her but her name - nothing. Thankyou, I won't be racking my brain trying to remember it now!
Wisenheimer
hmf... all I can remember is the bad memories from age 5.

SidAj, It actually exceeds eidetic memory. It seems to be very, very rare. I think that it would ultimately be a terrible burden to bear.

PG, We have already been through this! Many words are spelled differently in America and Europe. "Right" and "wrong" depend on where you live. "Spelt" and "learnt" look odd and kind of hillbilly-ish to Americans, but I haven't seen anyone mention it in several months. Demanding that other people conform to your standards is not a successful strategy for life. I tried it in my 20s a little bit. It did not work.

Player #21324452, do you remember where you put the slippers?

I kinda have something like that, I'm married and my wife won't let me forget anything, she's always right and she's never wrong.
VAL
Player #21324452, you’re funny! And, only because I can relate. I saved this page only to remember what you said, which is hilarious. Thanks for the memory (only puns intended).
SidAj
Player: Coco, i guess it is the same as eidetic memory
SidAj
Alas Ken, actually that's not how it works
SidAj
Player Say what!?, I remember an episode form House MD where a patient with this condition receives a kidney or may be liver transplant from her sister but still wasn't able to forgive her for she has had done to her in childhood and teenage, she reversed her car and mulled her over
Mahina
I bet they’d be good at this game
Player #130998363
I hope she did something with her life to help others.

I met a girl who would ask when you were born and could tell you the day of the week you were born. She was right when I remembered my mom telling me about the day I was born on a Sunday after she got home from church her water broke they headed to the hospital.
Norm
scientist spelled incorrectly.
Lionessa
Only 12 people in the world have been diagnosed with this condition, but 4 people in the comments section have it...
Elenora

Ruf
Scientist is misspelled.
GB
I can't remember what I was going to say
Ben
Player #21324452, that made me laugh!
Maraboo
Did they forget how to spell SCIENTIST???
DT
Player Say what!?, Yes, one of such patients did mention she can't get rid of some painful memories from decades ago, as she can recall every detail and that's miserable.
Jean
saw a series about this condition, it was a sad ending tho
Player #120374466
She would make a good witness in a court case.
