Read Time:1 Minute, 0 Second



A caller describes not being able to remember anything from her life prior to a year ago, and how her dissociative amnesia has forced her to rediscover herself.

Then we hear from a caller who is questioning reality after a two tab acid trip, a caller who is not sure if she can make friends due to her niche interests scaring away her peers, and a caller who can no longer enjoy his local pizza after tasting better pizza in another town.

Draw something in Microsoft Paint and DM me it on Instagram (@Lyle4ever). I am a gecko.

46 thoughts on ““I HAVE AMNESIA” – Therapy Gecko

  1. I feel bad for her and her boyfriend, my bf has ADHD and it has made his memory very terrible, and I know it's not his fault but it also sucks to feel like you're not being listened to or 'oh I'm going on a trip tomorrow' (a classic move for my bf). Best of luck to her. I hope her doctors can help her. I have asked my bf to try medication because we are really out of options for his memory being improved in any other way, I can't remember the world for him, and I can't keep asking him to do 2 chores while I'm gone and he forgot again, we work similar hours and he needs to pull his weight himself.

    My bf had an episode of psychotic depression ~1 year ago and he has amnesia from it because it had changed his brain and he is obviously not psychotic now, that kind of episode is a limited state, and he has been upset with me for talking about it because I remember how awful it was and want to talk about it (I couldn't then mostly because he was unwell), it is very upsetting to him, and he feels bad about it (has even been apologetic realizing what he put me through).

    If there is a tender time in there, it may be for the best she doesn't remember. How healing it has been able to be to explore was very limited. For my bf it's like thinking of someone else's life and has been almost since immediately after it improved, it was wild to see.

  2. Blasted off on salvia one time and I can completely relate to the second guy. That eerie feeling that this might all be some dream/trip/after death experience always lingers

  3. โ€œI was tryna figure out if this reality was the real oneโ€ฆ so I just I smacked the sh*t out of herโ€

  4. For the second dude: Does it matter if it's real if it feels real? I've had some experiences that I know were in my head but it felt real and therefore it had the same effect on my life as if it was real. The outcome is the same.

  5. Am I just gullible or why does everyone seem to think the first caller is BS? As someone who is in their 20s and also is concerned about my terrible memory and constant dissociation, I found it very believable lol. Maybe I just don't want to feel alone.

    EDIT: I will say my experience isn't as severe as theirs, but I certainly see it heading that way in the future.

  6. its interesting how hard it is for her to understand the question about her hardest problem about her amnesia, because she doesnt have the recursive perspective of her constant loss-of-time, to begin with.

    I would imagine that not ever being able to run into someone you went to highschool with, and be able to recognize them across the oranges in the grocery store, would be a big problem, imo. Things like that happen constantly. Or looking at dating profiles online and not being able to remember who you didnt get along with already. Thats hard.
    shes strong.

    Edit: I have progressively worsening, hereditary Face-Blindess, so im really confessing the worst fears that I share, about my illness, with this person's illness.

    If I draw a cartoon of someones face, I can remember their face. Like a caricature or something. I can actually beat my face-blindness, so its not a fair comparison at all. Maybe she can beat hers if she takes concert videos at the beginning and ties that video to a memory of the rest of the concert, that might be her key.

    Maybe she needs to take short videos of her day every 4 or 5 hours or something.
