Background: I forget faces (and names and roads) within 5-10 minutes of meeting someone. I can manage with forgetting roads with use of GPS, but forgetting a face (and name) after meeting someone is a huge embarresment to the point that it is affecting my personal and professional relationships. I typically try to manage by remembering a person's dress etc, but that also fails if I am meeting someone (again) out of context, or after some time. I can rarely make new friends in local community because of this.

The faces finally get etched in my memory though after 4-5 interactions within similar ecosystem. Seeing people outside of context and remembering them is again a challenge. But, association gets stronger over time, and after meeting someone regularly for couple of months, I hardly forget a name or a face. I hope you get the picture.

1. Is anyone dealing with simliar issues? How do you manage? 2. How and where can I get help, if at all? (such memory issues seem to have no known medical cure is what I read) 3. Do you recommend some technology or habit which can help?

Thanks in advance.
