I wish that I had Better memory. I can't even recall my children's childhood. Really sad.

Hi LM44!

I have been diagnosed with DISSOCIATIVE AMNESIA caused by an extremely violent situation which was intended to kill me - but I survived much to the disappointment of my greatest enemy (who's receiving lessons on respect). What's interesting however, is that most of these chunks of my memory that have fallen off my hard drive are totally unrelated to the assault. It seems that dissociative amnesia can affect one's memory of other non-connected experiences. I'm hunting for "association triggers" to help me recover much of what was lost.
