The Good and bad things of having photographic memory
There are many good and bad things when you have photographic memory. Here are a few things:
advantages
1. It takes less energy to do your daily activities. For example, when people try finding a certain object they lost, it would only take you a few seconds to remember.
2. It will be very useful when you try to memorize things. While others take hours to study for a test, all you have to do is skim through the book while your brain is taking the pictures.
3. At most cases, you will never get lost. Once you remember how you came to a certain place, there is no way of forgetting.
4. There is a higher possibility where you will do well in your academics, where some call it the "encyclopedic knowledge "

Disadvantages
1. When you have photographic memory, people expect you to be perfect all the times. It was actually proven that people with this memory can also make mistakes (it's just that there is a lower possibility that this will happen).
2. Having photographic memories makes it hard to say goodbye to you're good friend. You can also hold grudges easily since you almost have a perfect memory.
3. You might remember things that you don't want to remember from the past (example: someone's death).
4. When you have this type of memory, you sometimes tend to think that others remember the same thing as you. It could be a shock when you clearly remember a friend from your childhood and they don't even know your name!
