Latuda — either on its own or in concert with all my other meds — erased a lot of my memories. Like brain-damage-level amnesia. The worst part is I don't know what's missing until someone else points it out. It's frustrating, to say the least, for everyone when someone else has to tell you where you were, what you did, what you said, etc.

I think a good example is: I saw a Cirque du Soliel performance 2 years ago. I remember none of it. Along with a lot of other things it got deleted.
The other day a friend referenced an inside joke. I didn't remember it. The scary part isn't just the absent memory, it's that my memory doesn't get jogged and I say or think, "Oh, yeah, I remember that now." No. It's just like whatever it was never happened to me.
