I kinda want to know if anyone's ever been like this or is currently like this.

I recoginize when I'm angry or sad or happy. BUt what borthers me is let's say I am angry. At the very moment when someone upsets me, I know I am angry. But then two minutes later, I can't remember why I was angry. Or someone I talk myself out of thinking anything made me angry and its just my own fault. But then a little later, its like I feel nothing. Like I don't know if I just felt anything. I can't remember the feeling of anger or if I was angry. Sometimes I can't even rememebr the situation that made me feel this way.

Like I know that all humans should forgive and forget but....the forgetting part seems a little off in my case I guess.

Maybe I should write down everything, from start to finish each time something like this happens. But I am afraid of over analyzing myself. What if nothing's wrong. Could I just be imaging everything. I am afraid of the outcome, of trying to figure myself out. But it hurts me and others around me to stay rooted in this maze of confusion. A little insight or words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated.

Heh, Thinking About Clouds.
TAC.

Yes, I understand. When I get TOTALLY stressed out (and many times I don't even KNOW I'm extremely stressed!) I completely forget these things, among many others. My thoughts are racing, thirty million things are going on in my head, and nothing makes any sense. That's when I forget what I was angry about, happy about, upset about, etc. It scares me!! I begin to wonder if I'm in the early stages of Alzheimers!!

But I've been told by the doc that it's stress -- thank God. I THOUGHT so since I've been stressed & depressed all my life. I don't know HOW to live without stress. I wish I did. The only time I didn't feel stress was when I was addicted to Xanax -- and I can't live like that anymore!!! I've been clean for 19 years, and I'm gonna STAY clean!!!

So yeah I know what you mean. Maybe counseling will help de-stress you. IF, that is, what is doing it! Talk to your doctor. He'll know. God bless & take care. Hugs, Lee

I think this could be a reaction rooted in stress. It is worth discussing it with a doctor; I'd start first with my GP.
