Okay, Mitch, I know now what your problem is. You're weird - just like me, that's why I recognise it so well. I thought at one time I might've had CAPD but while I have trouble following people talking, it's not CAPD. I can hear singing & talking in my head in other's voices too, if I know them well. Sometimes at night when I'm falling asleep, I can hear snatches of conversation in these other voices. I figure my brain's replaying audio memories.
Even though I have trouble keeping track of audio memories, I can still listen to more than one conversation at a time & keep track of what's said, & respond to both, if necessary but still can't remember them after a short period of time. But then I can't remember most conversations even when I really try.
I bet a lot of these problems that we have have much to do with the time frame that environmental poisons affect us during fetal development - at what stage the brain is developing in utero. Just a theory of mine. (Remember John Cleese in a Monty Python skit as a plain female scientist going on about 'her' theory of dinosaurs? Every time I say 'theory', that skit leaps into my head.)
