Recovering from Retrograde Amnesia

1. How would you begin the process of recovering your memory? Who would you turn to, where would you search, and how would you proceed?

First, I would have to find out who I am from a 100% trustable  source. Then, I have to get hold of my friends and family if I lost communication with them when the accident happened. I will ask everyone of them about myself and look for any evidence of my past life, such as diary, official records of me and maybe even my social media profiles.

2. Please describe the emotional journey you imagine you would be going through as you attempt to reconstruct your life. Imagine the feelings you would have.

I think I will be very suspicious about everything. I will probably not trust any people for awhile. I will probably even refuse any body from helping me. I will also feel very empty and helpless.

3. Suppose you were able to pick and choose the memories you wanted to recover from your life. What types of memories would you choose to retain and what types of memories might you decide to edit out of your remembered experience? Positive, negative, painful, happy, angry, frightened, etc. Please elaborate and explain some your decision making process.

At first, I will probably choose to only recover my memories that are pleasant to know. As I mentioned before, I will feel very empty and helpless. I really need something good to support my momentum during the process. After awhile, I will be very curious about the memories that are not very pleasant as well. I will try to recover those memories later in my recovering process.  Because I want to know everything about myself, otherwise I will not truly recover from who I am. I am afraid of a huge personality change if I don’t recover most of my memories.
