IN 2015 I SUFFERED BRAIN DAMAGE IN A MUGGING - I have the type of amnesia where you forget what you were just doing. They said the name of it in this video but I have - you know, forgotten LOL. Its nothing like as bad as it was at first and it was just as you describe. I say it was like the video of my day had been edited - just chunks missing. Of id go to bed Monday and wake up thursday and i had done things in the 2 missing days. It was not a BAD memory, it was NO memory. Its very different to forgetting where your keys are. This was literally NO RECORDING of the events.

IN 2015 I SUFFERED BRAIN DAMAGE IN A MUGGING The first 3 months were JUST like your into video - I had to be rushed to hospital id taken an entire box of sleeping tablets without knowing. "OH sleeping tablets better have one. OH sleeping tablets better have one." till the pack was empty. Its way better now but I lost my company and was homeless for a while. I have coping strategies now and the percentage of each day lost has gone from about 40% to 10%. NOT legally allowed to work though - I'm a danger to others This is really interesting cos my problem was/is short term Episodic. My ability to analyse complex problems has got BETTER as it the spare capacity is big put to other uses. YES I can confirm we CAN learn to remember things via alternative routes.
