i was sexually abused repeatedly as a kid and didn’t remember for ~15 years until it all came back in my traumatized brain. Wild.

This thread is wild with these comments bro. No empathy for women who had trauma.

You must have the world's worst memory.

Well that sounds like a very specific ‘you’ problem and not something to reasonably expect of the entire rest of the world.

If you have blocked the memories of your bad mistakes, you wouldn’t have anxiety about them.

Telling a man/woman to “block the memory” of sexual misconduct is insanely insensitive and a straight up Asperger’s thing to say. It wasn’t a mistake they made, they had no control over whether it happened or not.

You would too. Its called brain fog. I live with it all my life. I have no motivation to do anything except to watch tv or go online. And i was diagnosed with aspergers. Had an issue yesterday where previously i had used my phone for 2fa on 1 account but lost access to email so created another. So cant use service. I cant let it bother me.

I remember a ton of things from 5 years ago and none of them were something as memorable as me being assaulted.
