TIL about “the doorway effect”

[walkitout]

I have had a problem for years where I go down to the basement to get something, totally forget what it was, go upstairs, remember, go back down, forget, go up, write it on my hand, go down, look at hand, remember, do the thing.

I _thought_ this was hormonal or early stage something scary but nope. “The doorway effect”. Who knew. Not me.
