The Mystery of Post-Concert Amnesia Among Taylor Swift Fans

TL;DR Summary
Some Taylor Swift fans are experiencing "post-concert amnesia," where they have trouble remembering the show due to sensory overload. Neurologist Dr. Leah Croll explains that this is a neurologic phenomenon that can happen in any heightened emotional state, where the brain is so present in the moment that it doesn't have the energy to focus on memory formation. While some fans may find it concerning, Dr. Croll says it's not necessarily a bad thing and just means that the brain was processing a lot of stimuli.
