Re: Childhood Amnesia (theries)
Hi @Former-Member
There is a big chunk of my childhood that i cannot remember, before the age of 9.
But between 9-12 I can remember my childhood sexual abuse very clearly. After that again I have bits and pieces that I remember.

Re: Childhood Amnesia (theries)
Yes, i know how amnesia feels. I'm missing huge chunks of my childhood too.
Its good to know (according to the article above - see link) that not all amnesia is trauma.
Personally I think i have psychological fragmentation (where whole chunks of our life broken off) for whatever reason. Only this week my son was recalling an every day event from his childhood - but sadly I simply could not recall it and connect as would be nice. Though there was a vague dreamlike possible memory that may fit, but not sure. Even my girl use to say "mum, you forget things" Its sad that I have so many memory blocks (thus my profile name).
Not everyone has to have trauma for amnesia? But is Is it DID? I don't know, too tired tonight.
Good to see you though BlueBay. I've been keeping to myself lately (just a couple of threads) mainly because I've been struggling IRL and need to not overload emotional stuff, if you know what i mean. You be gentle with yourself .💜 🌷🌿

i understand so much of childhood amnesia. It's very traumatic.
