Memory Loss Novels & Stories

I continued softly, “and for a while, I forgot he was even there. It frightened me. And then, just yesterday, I went to the kitchen to get water. When I reached there, I forgot why I came.” I twisted my fingers together on my lap, ashamed to say it out loud. The doctor leaned back slightly, his expression thoughtful. “Have you been stressed lately? Thinking too much? Feeling fear often? Or perhaps… experiencing some sort of mental breakdown?” I lowered my eyes. “Yes. I’ve been going through a lot these past weeks. It’s been draining me.” He nodded slowly. “That explains some things. What you’re describing is memory loss, often triggered by severe stress, traum

“First of all, why can’t I remember anything from the past year? Nothing. It’s like it’s been wiped clean.” Doctor Jared sighed. “You have developed what we call retrograde amnesia,” he explained gently. “Your memories from before the accident haven’t fully settled into long-term storage yet, especially the recent ones. Older memories, things from years ago, are stored deeper in the brain, so they remain intact. But the events from last year are temporarily blocked.” “Will they come back?” I asked. That was the only thing that mattered. How was I supposed to live day to day knowing parts of my own life were missing? The people I met, the decisions I made, the investments, relationships, ever

Her fall was quite fatal, so it is expected to happen,' the doctor said making my insides tighter. ‘If she forgot who she is in recent times then she should remember me from her past. She was supposed to express shock at seeing me after so many years but she obviously doesn't know who I am at all,’ I said. Getting up from my seat, I started pacing. ‘It is called selective memory loss. I guess her mind had a reason to wipe that off,’ the doctor said. ‘Of all the people she could forget, her mind chose to wipe off all the memories of my existence? How convenient?’ I hissed.

"He did. All except the ones involving his father. Memory loss is a symptom of hydrocephalus in adults. However, I do not understand why his is selective, but I can tell you this: —Adonis's condition is rapidly deteriorating. Fast."

"Really funny! anyway, I have a question" I said and she face me while doing that stitching stuff. "What is it?" "For a person that is suffering from short term amnesia for two years, is there any possibilities that their memory slowly comes back or is it because there is a trigger?" "That depends, and also to correct that, if that is almost two years now, well it is not consider as short term amnesia or simply called memory loss, hmm why dont you give concrete details instead" "Oh so that is, ahmm, well what if the person forgets to remember the recent past but remembers everything from two to five years before, it is like having a selective memory lost"

He pressed one hand over his mouth trying to take the words in but none of it made any sense no matter how he tried to think it through. The doctor sighed, turning to face him. "It appears she has memory loss, likely from the trauma. It's not uncommon in cases like this. The brain sometimes blocks out memories to protect itself." "Will she get her memory back?" David asked, desperation in his eyes. The doctor shook his head. "It's hard to say. Sometimes memories return on their own, sometimes they need therapy, and in some cases, they might never come back. We'll need to monitor her closely."

"What's the last thing you remember? A place, a person, maybe an event?" She closed her eyes, trying to grasp onto any fragment of her old life. Flashbacks flickered like dying embers, too distant and fragmented to ignite a coherent memory. Her voice trembled as she replied, "I...I don't remember." The doctor's eyes held an understanding that soothed her troubled spirit. "Memory loss can be a perplexing puzzle, but we have specialists who can help decipher it. We'll run some tests, perform imaging scans, and consult with experts in the field."

Why do I keep feeling like I'm forgetting something? ******************************************

Grief was written all over the faces. "He is suffering from memory loss. He is still stuck on a specific date that caused a trauma to his brain. Maybe the hit on his head did that. For him, the present is three years back. I suggest you not to force him to remember things. He needs treatment. It may last for a short time but a long time as well. It depends on the brain of the patient. If it is strong then there's hope. For the time being, the good thing that has happened is that he got his consciousness. For the rest, let's hope for the best." "But his lost memories will find him no matter how long it takes, won't they?"

After the doctor finished speaking, he turned to look at Edward and said, "The cause of amnesia can be divided into three major categories. The first category is the serious physical damage to the brain, the second category is psychological trauma, and the third category is possibly the memory loss caused by some drugs. For Miss Smith's condition, it should be the first category." He paused for a moment and looked at Ellena before continuing, "I have seen the CT scan of Miss Smith's brain at different stages of treatment. That degree of injury would cause memory loss is very normal. At the current stage, your body has healed. As
