I have memories from my early childhood that I will not share with others because the only logical conclusion they could draw is that I am full of shit. My youngest daughter appears to be the same and I caution her about how it looks to others. The weird part is that my memory is at best normal in all other regards.
- wjnc 4y agoCan you explain without telling the memory? So you mean like age 1-2-3 year old memories? I’ve got a few of those that seem unrelated to family pictures or stories told on later dates. My dad had a few very early memories and one of my children has for sure. He once vividly described the car we had until he was less than 1 year old. I wouldn’t discount the pre 6 year old memory, although I’ve read and noticed that at that age a large filter follows.
- lazide 4y agoAre they backed up by any evidence or related memories from others? Sometimes some folks have near photographic memories of things others don’t, other times they believe they do and their brain has filled in the gaps with what feels like extremely vivid detail - but when cross checked against evidence or others, it becomes clear those memories could not possibly be true.
