Is it normal to want to have amnesia?

Sometimes I wish I can just... forget about the shit I regret doing. I just want a painless way to forget everything, like some sort of miracle pill if you ask me. It’s not even about forgetting the embarrassing stuff, it’s also forgetting about drama with family members, people that I had had developed a love-hate relationship, and just things that can help prevent me from making a stupid mistake. I talked about it with a professional and I’m doing my best to forget about it, but the feeling of wanting to forget about stuff comes back especially during escalations.

    All you can do is try to forgive yourself for your past mistakes. No-one has lived a perfect life and once you’ve learned the lessons you should forgive yourself the errors.

    If your issues with your family are troubling you so much perhaps you should speak to a therapist about it.

    Kinda, mainly so I could rediscover the joy in playing skyrim.
