A lot of people are face blind (including me), and it's extremely embarrassing, especially when I'm supposed to remember a person's name. Wouldn't wear survialiance tech to try to fix it though.

I didnt know this was a thing, how severe is it for you?

I have a similar thing with names when and I think it's just because my brain somehow decides that interaction meant nothing and the information was not important to save.
