I was going to write this in the other thread, but feel its more appropriate to let that one die since I wrote it in a certain state and don't remember writing it

I had appointment today with casemanager, we talked for about an hour about my experience in rehab, the medications they put me on, being sober, the future, my plans, recovery strategies, staying sober, ect ect...

But the weird thing is I had forgot my therapist, I couldnt remember her for the life of me... I forgot her name... I called her Meridith and thought it was her, my first therapist... then my case manager said megan, and I was like, Who is Megan?

I am going to try to remember to talk to my T about it... It was really embarrassing even though my case manager didnt notice... she probably thought I was talking about someone in rehab...

I don't understand whats happening to me. I'm trying so hard.
I know I'm not stupid... I just cant get a grasp on this...

Have any of you ever experienced something like that?
is there a name for it..?
amnesia? or retromemory? or reverting to previous states?

I dunno... Its scary because what if I forget my family, or if it happens for everyone and i just cant recall people?
I mean as soon as she said megan i was scared, because i knew that i had forgotten her name although i thought i was talking about meridith the whole time, like she was still my therapist...
