After living about 24 years in a rather protected countryside setting I decided to spend one year in China. This shocked me to some degree because it completely changed my view on most things in this world. But it also made me forget nearly everything from my years before I went to China. It's strange to say this, but a grownup doesn't often come into situations where he needs to recall specifics of his childhood. Therefore until now I never had a big problem with that, although it makes me still uncomfortable years later.
- valar_m 12y agoI'm having trouble conceptualizing the idea of being unable to remember anything before the age of 24. Can you expand on that? For example, I can recall my time in high school and college -- both generally and specific events -- rather well (I think). When you think back to those times in your life, whether you were in school or doing something else, do you just draw a blank?
