Trust Issues
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 thing first, I would look through my old photo album since I can hardly trust people who I can’t seem to remember. Then I would ask about myself from the people who been there for me since I got hit. I would turn to my family first and then the people I talk to the most. Since we have internet nowadays, I can turn to my Facebook page. I might had written my passwords somewhere around my room. I would just look through my old comments/pictures/messages. I will also try to do things that my family or friends told me that I have a habit of and see if I can remember anything.
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.
At first, I would feel scared, confused, and lost. Since I wouldn’t know who to trust and what to do. I will try my hardest to remember what happened before the incident. I will trust the people who will be always there for me. I will try to wander around or do things that I used to do. I would most likely become a naive person since I don’t know anything about my past.
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.
I will most likely want to remember all my past memories. Cause I would love to know what kind of person am I. The only memories that I might decide to edit out is memories that always causes pain to me. I would remember positive/happy/exciting moments because I don’t want to be a stressed out person. I might keep some negative memories like who to trust or who not to trust.
