What would happen........

Hi Deepak You infact said the story of Salaam - E - Ishq .. Have you seen that movie ?? In this movie there were many stories .. one of which of -- Vidya Balan and John Abraham -- they were married couples -- and one day Vidya met with an accident and she simply forgot everything -- I am sure she forgot -- last 5 years memory and she got married to John for the last 5 years and so -- John was a complete stranger for her. It was really sad to see that she could not recognize him well as her husband. If it happens with me .. I think -- you will be a total stranger for me because our friendship is of just one year .. God what am I saying ?? It should not happen to anyone .. no one .. and I don't wish to think much about this issue :)

Hello deepak! Oh my, this is really hard. I am trying to imagine myself what would happen and what will I do and the only answer I can give is just to rely with the people near me and believe what they will said. I guess that would be our initial reaction.

Wow what a tough one you have posed here pal! (hope you're well by the way?)! If I were to lose all my memories of the last five years I would not know that I've been married just over 4 years to my lovely husband (but we were engaged back then, so I would at least know that I loved him enough to get engaged). I would not be diabetic and maybe I might have done something more to prevent it. Career-wise I don't know that I would have made different choices but I have good and bad experiences from the last 5 years, but if one erases the bad experiences one cannot appreciate the good one, don't you agree? x

I would be pleased if one day I find my memory erased. Memory do not get lost or erased for no reason. There is always a reason behind it. It indicates a chance to start life afresh and anew. Perhaps our loved ones around us may be sad at the loss but why dwell on the past when the inevitable has happened. Just accept life as it is and I believe it is a win-win for all. We can then work on recovering the memory a little at a time until full memory is restored, if this is still possible.

Hi deepak I just noticed your this discussion to be honest not a good assumption its just like Filmi Situation i am sure only gorgeous herione can remind u memory back, just imagine ur recent 5 yrs are no more in ur life when u wake up, u r living in 5 yrs old world i think after knowing all this, u will get so much load that u will be totally out of mind so i dont want to think about it take care deepak and dont have night mares take care zass

its a very scary thought,i cant imagine forgetting every thing.. well i guess you would not be upset or sad, as you remember nothing. you do not remember your loved ones who you will miss, you would not remember good times to feel sad. so i guess you would have a numb feeling. as you can remember nothing. i guess the people around me could be my loved ones but i would not know for sure as i have lost my memory right?

Hi deepak, How are you. Now why have you started such a scary and emotionally sad discussion. suddenly one morning I get up and I do not recognize my own children as they were five years younger and now what I see are strangers to me.....oh no.......I would prefer to die at that very moment.....what is life if you cannot recognize your own people specially your children when they need you so much...even the imagination of such situation gives me pain and shivers........I hope nobody suffers from such horrible conditions. You will be dependent on others and you can be also mis used by others or you can become a channel of laughter for others......the more I think about it the more shocked I am feeling,,,,,,,,, deepak what really made you start such discussion ....did you had bad dream.......

Maybe I'd welcome it. After all, the last five years of my life had been mostly rubbish...

Hi there dpk! Well, I always forget lots of things now, at the age of twenty five. Like where I put something and what I said a while ago and I ask questions again that I just asked. I feel like my memory has problems so I am making a blog about my life and I told my husband and my sisters that if ever the time comes that I just wake up and can't remember anything about my life at all, they should make me read that blog of mine.

Hi dpk262006! It will be a very sad and confusing feeling. Five years is still a long time to connect the missing links of how I got to be like this or like that. However, i would still be thankful that I still know who I am and who my family is. From there I could build my life and try to regain what is lost of the lost times that were erased through my trusted family. Just my thoughts. take care and have a nice day!

I cant imagine it at all...we would be totally lost!!!....we would have to rely on friends and family to tell us what weha been up to for the last five years...had we done anything memorable??...had we done anything terribly bad?? Surely if five years memory was erased we would really have to tart all over again...we may not be able to remember what our likes and dislikes were....who we loved and who we didnt...it doesnt bear thinking about...but a very good question

I would be totally lost if I lost all my memories for the last 5 years. I would then have no memory of having my 2 daughters or having my stepson in my life. I would think they would just be strangers. I cant even think of something like that! It's just to scary. I've heard of people completely lossing their memory from an accident and trying to remember who they even are.

before i already thought of having amnesia and not remembering things. maybe i will be sad, for sure it's a stressful thing and i'll be experiencing too much fear in my life. ofcourse i won't really know people around me. i'll be confused and put in the position to decide to trust people or not. it would really be hard for me take..

That would be terrible.....I'd have to thank god for keeping my rest of the memories of my parents and loved ones.

In a way, it would not bother me a whole lot because alot fo bad things happen in my life and I wish to eraase alot of them from my mind. I would miss the good memories a whole lot though. I would just have to move on and make newer good memories.

I would be in a state of confusion. Who I am is intwined in what my memories are. Just having a loved one or friend give me a output on what has happened in those five years would be alright but not quite the same as remembering myself. It would for me be a frighting experience.

Hmmm quite an interesting idea. I am not really sure of what would happen. In a way I think the biggest feeling might be frustration at nor being able to remember. On the other hand, our life has been so complicated the last 10 years or so, that maybe forgetting half of it would be like letting go of half the stress, worries and pain. Maybe it would be interesting. I don't think I would react too badly to it. I am sure that I would start making new memories and enjoy those.

Unfortunately, this does happen to some people, in reality. I think one of the worst diseases ever is Altzheimers, because finally, the person with this, is robbed of the memory of everyone in their life that they care for. They can never get these memories back. If this were to happen to me, even for five years worth of memories, I'd truly hope that my loved ones would be there for me, and help me to regain these precious memories. Our memories help define who we are, in many ways.

That would be awful. The worst thing is not being able to remember the last 5 years of my children's lives. I would feel robbed, nothing can replace those lost memories. There are some things however that I would be glad that were erased from my memory as I have many hurtful things too that have happened. I would not like to rely on other people too to tell me how life was. We all perceive things differently noone could tell you how life was for you. Does that make sense? So I am thankful that I have my memories I hold them close to my heart.

hello that would be very sad if such thing happen coz it is a hard situation not knowing the past and trying to figure it out. i feel in this case we should all have photos around, take a lot of photo and named it and maybe make a quick note so when you look at it, it will tell you what you feels like when the photo is taken, it will somehow give you an idea what your life is like during those five years. you can also keep a diary of log special stories or situation in your life so you have something to look at as your reference if such incident occur. last but not the least, have friends and family members to remind you and share your past with you. they are the best people to tell you what it is like BUT they may not tell you everything coz they may want to tell you only happy thoughts coz they may not want to break your heart or make things more complicated. so the best thing to do is keep a diary., just my honest opinion. anyway, great topic sure makes me wonder and think. takecare!
