I seem to have lost some memories. After I was attacked, I seemed to have very clear memories of my childhood, but not much from my twenties. I still find my memories very vague. Sometimes, I will be dreaming at night and I am not sure if what is going through my mind might be a real memory. It can be frustrating at times.
But I have a very high value on short term memories – it would be hard to do much without it – work tasks, household tasks, financial tasks….all sorts that makes short term memories very helpful.
I think long term memory would be best, right? Because all the things that we forget in our short term memory would become long term memories we could then remember? LOL

I am not able to make this choice. Both are so valuable to me.

How long term are we talking about? If I could let go of my childhood, I’d be good with that.
