Q : Lots of confusion

March 20th, 2008
Filed under: Advice corner, Life

Question by a PooraPagal Visitor :

Age:: 19-25

Gender:: Female

Ethnicity:: Pakistani / Indian

Hmmm Its very first time im seeking help online, but i just sow this site and hmmm had to try God knows maybe it can help me somehow..

At this moment my life is totally a mess,I dont know what to do and where to go, whom ti trust and whom not to..Im quite a poitive girl, and try to see the bright side of any situation, but hmmm right now i dont see any light let go bright side…I have faith in God but i also believe he wants us to struggle and find the answers and to know what life is all about..

Im under medication and just Recently i got memory loss,i have no idea whats been happening in my life the past 3 years and my life now is TOTALLY oposite and different from what i remember.. I have lost my friends dear to my heart, and i have made new friends, how that happend i have no clue..we have moved in a new place, how that happendi dont know, i know nothing…Life is just completely up side down.. I have been told that i knew this will happen that my medication might affect my memory, so i wrote a 5pages letter which i got now, my own handwriting was more than enuf to get me shocked hmmm,though its just words for me as i can feel the feeling behind those words i read, but still im confused like anything…

Life is like a dark and dark path and im in there somewhere in the middle, cant go back and im scared to death in taking a step ahead hmmm, i dont know what to do… my parents tell me something else my Dr something else and my friends tells me something else, their talks dont match… deep inside i think i know who to believe as i got some facts but im so scared to say or so something that i might regret getting back my memory, what if i say something that hurt ppl close to me, what if i dont say something and i lose the most precious one i had?

What should i do? Just keep quiet and cut myself from everyone untill i remember or just go with the flow? Yes i trust God and I know i have faith he will help me, my friends and my family through this, but my every sec is like hell for me.. My mind is blank and its too painful to not say anything in return when i get so much care and so much love hmmm…

Do give some advice, will be forever grateful.. Thanx!

The situation seems to be very confusing yes, but ofcourse everything and everyone has a reason to be on this earth. Some are here to teach others about how life can sometimes turn upside down so we should always be thankful to God for what we have, and for others it’s a sign that they are the chosen ones that are given this test because God knows they can manage it.

The situation you explained above is ofcourse medically possible so we won’t look away from that. But you also stated that you have a handwritten letter that you wrote, well if there is anything you can trust then obviously that can be one major thing to consider. As to you not feeling anything from the letter or the things you hear, that ofcourse is something you know as well that you don’t remember anything, therefore you won’t remember the feelings and emotions either associated with it.

As for your doctor and parents saying something else and friends saying something else. Well ask yourself and ask your heart, what does that say. In a memoryloss the brain is affected, but the rest of the things inside you the soul the hands the eyes they do carry some memory as well. It depends how you want to move ahead, with a smile on your face realizing that you had the most special thing ever, or want to cut yourself off from things that you warned yourself against in the letter.

Take it slowly and yet again, trust yourself trust God and with a complete faith in friendship and genuine people. You will see the true meanings behind what people say and why they say it.

Life is a beautiful thing, so just hold onto the ones that care for you and go beyond any limits to help you go through this painful time.

    Well I can just imagine the trauma you must be going through, waking up to realize that you have lost a big chunk of your life.The fact you have a letter you wrote for yourself should help you for you definitely trust your own handwriting more than you can trust peoples words. Yes God has chosen you to go thru this tough test as you are special to him .As this a petty confusing time for you, I would advice you to take it a little slow.

    Have trust in God & go with what your heart says because your instincts will tell you what is correct.You seem like a very sensitive girl & am sure the people who you mention, your family , friends know you well enough to know what you must be going through so do not think about hurting anybodys feelings, but go with the flow of things. Its understandable that you do not understand all at once the many many changes that happened in your life in just a few minutes or maybe days. So give yourself time to read & go through all you have written, keep in touch with the people you have mentioned about in your letter& get to know them yet again. Maybe then the feeling of comfort will come.

    Apart from that , dont go by what people say, ut what you feel :) have belief & trust in God & I am sure the ones who care for you genuinely , you will see them reach out to you & help you find your way through this confused state.

    Hey Reader, umm..you and I are sailing in the same boat. I wish and feel I can come and sit next to you and tell you that everything is gonna be okie. umm..but i know atleast you will read this and know that i truly mean it.
    I am currently going through the same situation. I not only forgot my past 5, 6 years of my life but I am clouded with my childhood memories as well. I dont recognize my own pics, my own voice at times. Its been 12 days and feels like ages at times and at times feels like a day is less to learn something new about me.

    Initially, i was overwhelmed just like you not knowin whom to believe and whom to talk to about how I felt. But somewhere in this confusion, I had to seek help of God and try not to clutter my brain with zillion thoughts. I knew believing anybody was difficult for me. Like you said too many different answers. But all i kept thinking in my mind was, I am here, i exist so i have a reason for this existence, there have been people in my life who have made me for what I am today. I didnt know who they were but i keep in mind that this is what i have to find out because I am living a second life again. I keep saying this to myself, who gets to live this life over and over again? If God chose it to be me then I accept it and I will win this.

    Mind and heart both will start working slowly. Looking at the pictures often and havin small hints with it also helps to recall a lil..You need not necessarily go and talk to everybody about it but if there are people who keep messagin you with every detail they know about your life even before your 3 yrs back incidents, try trustin them. I know it is easier said than done. But i have done it myself and am still doing it. It is not easy but somewhere you have to start trusting few correct? If you think I cant trust anybody, how will that help you? If you have any questions, keep asking questions, nobody will say anything to you even if you ask thousand questions a day. People understand what you are going through.

    Try to meditate as much as you can. It relaxes your brain after constant thinking. Because when you have mem loss, your brain actually is tryin to work harder than before because you are tryin to find answers. So ur brain needs to relax and rest as well. At times, surrender urself to God.. When you meditate and close your eyes for whatever time, it surely relaxes your brain and releases your stress level.

    It is not easy to recall everything but keep sayin this to urself that it is not impossible either. You have to fight this and you will is what ur mission should be. Life is never dark. It feels dark because rt now your mind is clouded with thoughts. You need to give urself sometime to realize that people who are tryin to help you out unconditionally are the ones you can trust on and life will not seem darker then. Dont be scared to take steps ahead. It will onli help you learn more about urself. I am going thru this and i am in ur shoes rt now. So have faith in what I have said. And try doing things which i just mentioned. Later on you will not regret tryin this! God believed, you are the strongest so he put you thru this ordeal. Show him that his challenges and hurdles are something that are proud of and can overcome all this:) Always keep a smile on your face, it helps people who are helpin you out as well:) All the best :)

    Hi there :),
    I can just imagine what you’re going through but like Grace, Poorapagal and others have said, you have to trust yourself more than anything in the world. I think instead of trying to figure out whom to trust and whom not to, you should trust yourself and your heart the most. The letter that you’ve written, that is something that should help you. Whatever you’ve written in there, believe in that. Don’t believe anything else. You recognize your handwriting, you know the words are written by you, and that is all you should try to understand.

    Don’t be scared to take a step ahead. Do it slowly and it will be easier. One step at a time and before you know it, you will have your life back to normal. It sounds easier than done but you must have faith. “Life is a succession of moments. To live each one is to succeed” Believe in this quote, its a very meaningful quote, read between the lines and you will know what I mean. Often we learn who we really are and then live with that decision and you should do the same. Don’t stress yourself over what is or what it might be.

    As far as hurting people, if they are your true friends and they know what is going on then nothing is going to come in the way. They will understand that you don’t mean to hurt them. We always only hurt those the ones we love the most. Believe in yourself. Follow your heart. Godwilling, you will get the answers you want. Friends are God’s gift to us, we must take advantage of that gift. Friends don’t hurt each other. So don’t feel as if you’ll say something to hurt them and lose them, because you will not. They will stand by you each step of the way and help you whenever you need it.

    You, yourself said that you’re quiet a positive girl then that is all you need. Positivity. Don’t think negative thoughts. Take it slow and one day at a time. You seem to have many people who love you dearly and care about you and they will stand by you each step of the way. Seek their help, if needed to get the answers you want. Ask them about things that you’re confused about and that might help you understand things a bit better. More than anything else, believe in yourself, keep your faith in God and everything will be OK.

    As for cutting ties with people and isolating yourself, don’t do that. That will drive you insane. Rather, talk to people. Talk to the new friends you’ve made, but take it slowly. Don’t try to overwhelm yourself. Do it at your own pace. Don’t hesitate to interact with people.

    Trust God, trust yourself, trust the letter that you have and everything will be ok. Your friends and family are your strength, they will help you get through this. Believe in yourself and everything will work out just fine.

    God Bless! May God give you the strength to fight and overcome all this confusion and bring you back to normal and give you the happiness that you deserve. There is nothing called a problem, its only a challenge or an opportunity to learn and understand the life and people around us.

    Remember, NOTHING in life is impossible and after every Sunset, there’s a Sunrise. God Bless you and I pray that you get your answers soon and come out of this dilema.
