Eidetic

entry picture

I have an eidetic memory which is similar to a photographic memory.

Apparently useful if you work for MI5 !

I can remember all the kind positive comments left on my poems left previously and I appreciated every single one of them.

Eidetic memory remembers the spoken word, I also remember all situations, places I have been and can also bring an almost identical picture to my mind.

My father has this also, it sounds life a gift a blessing but it's not, my father and I call it a curse.

It causes many many dreams and disruptive sleep, which I've had since I was 2 years old.

This is why I struggle to move on as ,everything stays locked in my brain or as I call it 'my think tank',

ill use 'rape' here as a term to reference every bad thing that happens as a violation...things youd rather forget.

interesting alex.

i have a photgraphic memory, im not good recalling sounds and words , i can but not as vividly as the captured image. it is a blessing i can remember whole sections of text so its good for an exam, however my short term memory is a bit fucked so i only remember things once they go into long term...odd really. when i was a child and at my brightest it was great.that was before i having to remember with clarity every mistake, every rape..a curse.
