Why the hell does this keep happening? I still hear horror stories of how people struggle for half of their lives and nobody stops to think "this isn't normal, we should see a doctor" and it just infuriates me.

Please, if it is negatively effecting your life or you get into arguments about it and it's effecting your social or home life, see a doctor.

Pretty sure my life would be really different if I had had the ability to actually study instead of "read some of the chapter, skip the boring bits and exercises, and then call it good".

Per the doc, a better than average memory can do a good job masking that it's not encoding stuff right or that you're not getting half of what's being given.

Good thing I have severe short term memory loss.
