The story

This morning I remember I got a small nosebleed and had some blood on my hands, and I'm used to nosebleeds so it's not a big deal. It ended as I got to morning holding (that's when everyone who didn't go to breakfast sit in the gym and wait to go to class) and my friend Emma was like "Did you get a nosebleed?" And I was like "yeah" so she handed me some tissues.

Then my memory skips to me talking to my friend next to me, the blood on my hand is mostly gone, and I can sense that people are upset with me, but I have no idea what I said now. I don't remember saying anything, or even looking at the person who seemed most upset with me. I just asked him, and he said I called him an asshole for trying to help him, and then when he asked what he did I said "Oh yeah what'd YOU do..." BUT I DONT REMEMBER ANY OF IT. Now he won't talk to me (even more so than usual, he's been ignoring me lately) and I'm genuinely scared at why this memory gaps happened. It's happened before, but usually I remember something, like a person's face, or what happened to make me say something, nut I don't remember. It's like my memory was wiped clean of that exact moment and I have no idea why.

Memory gaps can be really freaky and confusing. I totally get why you're concerned — it must be unsettling not remembering those moments. It's great that you have friends like Emma who are there for you though.

Memory can be tricky sometimes, especially when you're stressed 🤔 Maybe take it easy and see if it happens again, but you're right to be cautious.

Take care and stay mindful of any changes in behavior or memory that might pop up. It’s all part of life’s crazy adventure 🌟

Maybe you should see a professional about that, just to ensure everything is alright…
