I have past memories when I access them the details are lost. Time stamps are lost. I know the memories of things that happened but now many are vague and out of sequence.

I think thinking of the past is a good thing to have and do.

Memories of past trauma hits me hard. My social worker said that if I wanted to I could start doing prolonged exposure therapy…I don’t know though.

I wish that id never gone down memory lane it just opened up a whole can of worms. Its not always necessary to speak about and think about your past and put it under the microscope. Dealing with the present is enough with mental illness without that

I cherry pick my memories and automatically dispose of a memory if I don’t want to think about it.

Sometimes I dont like that my memory sucks. But sometimes I am glad that I forget things and can ignore my past.
