My mermoery is uaslly preety bad, well mroe fuzzy than anything else , like all static like, like fuzzy static on a radio, never flowing as well as they should, you know like theirs a tension in my memories where I just freeze, and cant think.

 

[boohoo]

Yes, my memory's really bad. Once, I didn't recognise someone I should have known - it's only happened once but it really scared me. But I don't have any trouble remembering what I'm studying in college. Do you find that? It's only day to day stuff that I seem to have problems with.

well yeh I can cope preety much with goign to uni, turning up for lectures , remembering most of the work. but when it going about my daily day I find that I feel hmm cluless as to how to go about daily living, not cluless but don't seem to have energy to live or go out. If I could I think I would sleep all day.

Iv always had bad mmemory though, but now my memory is just distoreted and all other the place, this is the best explanation.

I have a good explnation for what my memories like now, its like having a weird vibrating murmour in my head which is non stop all day, sort of like something jamming my tohughts, like im trying to recall certain memeories but there is a force or a factor that is stopping my active recall? not a hallcination but a mental barrier and I kind of freeze frame , where im just frozen (probably from drug induced states) in a constant kind of ughhhhhhhhhhhhh.

ive got really bad memory problems too. i cant remember short-term stuff at all..everyday stuff like where i put things or what i did yesterday etc. i also cant remember my childhood very well at all..i can recall some stuff but not very well..i can remember very few details

Hola,
Yeah, the memory thing gets me a little freaked out at times too. The worst for me is TIME. Whenever I am done doing a task, The sensation is that I could have done it 5 minutes ago or 5 MONTHS ago, it all just feels the same to me. Time has become elastic.

I wish you well,
Tony

my sense of time is also complety distoreted, and I acutally have no sense of time, for example before dp I would have the feeling of a day has just passed I have had a day, but now its like time is bendy and there is no real excpereince of time, like a void but with a 'me' somehow still expericneing.

like the time it just took me to write this post, Porobably took me a few minutes, but I dont have a subjective feeling of any time passing, yet paradoxily it felt like an eternity.

In the first two weeks of my DP/DR ( - if it's really psychological? - ) I couldnt either remember what 5-10 minutes ago happened. :shock:

Yep - been there done that - and am now doing it again.

Was OBSESSIVE about memory too - something would happen, 10 minutes later i'd try and remember and COULD not pull back details, and would PANIC. I was positive my memory was slowly deteriorating.

If you want some hope - it got better for an entire year, before starting to act up again.
