I have a constant feeling that I had a great idea or an important thought just now or just a few minutes ago. I know I have recurring thoughts - not of the bad kind, mind you - that I deem quite useful but I am never sure that this feeling of forgetting is with respect to those recurring ideas or something new. Does this kind of thing ring a bell?
I occasionally get the feeling that I had an important thought just now/a few minutes ago. More often than not, I can remember it by thinking about it for a few seconds.
Well that is the usual case of it, retrace my steps or think about something else for a few seconds, but in the described cases I can't for the life of me figure it out again.
I used to get it while drowsy and slipping in and out of sleep. I attributed it to maybe falling into REM for a few seconds and then getting pulled out.
