I want to forget something.
This something happened a few days ago, and has been constantly nagging and bothering me, when I'm eating/sleeping/silent in thought I suddenly remember it and become slightly depressed/upset. This is a personal, but really minor thing (not like my mom died, of course i won't forget that), that I don't think should really bother me. It's really annoying, it disturbs me so much. I tried a few things, like mentally dealing with it and telling myself IT'S REALLY NOT THAT BIG OF A DEAL (and it really isn't), but the cruel paradox is, whenever I try to forget it, I have to first recall it. I tried distracting myself, like thinking of other things, doing other things, but it's fucking relentless.
I feel like I'm going slowly insane. It's so annoying, like the single vulture killing probes when you have two control groups of goons outside your base and you don't want to move all of it just to kill the damn thing. It's also like some insinious bug, in the form of a memory. God, someone post some suggestions. My hope now is that it'll slowly go away and fade from me.

just hang on, soon ull be free, time is the key
|
So you beat off to some gay porn..every guy does it once
|
hasuwar you can do it twice to cover for me -_-;;
|
well i pretty much go insane too when bad things happen to me but really i don't think there is anything i could say to get you to put it to rest, i mean you'll always remember it but the key is to just endulge yourself in the things you love most. stay close with your friends and family, it always worked for me. GL Man hope this helps

This works for me when I need to forget something...
You must first find the memory that troubles you (unneeded guilt, shame from saying the wrong thing at the wrong time, or a traumatic memory that only you remember and is keeping you from enjoying life) and focus on it.
The memory is there and only an effect of your own brain. Realize that it, like a gum wrapper, is given power only so long as you chose to give it power. See it clearly, focus on every detail so that you understand it, do not let yourself be emotionally drawn into it. Do not let yourself feel the memory. Now we begin.
Take that memory and slowly drain the color from the scene. Let it fade into shades of black, white, and grey. Continue until all the color is gone. Focus on the color draining away from the scene. Now concentrate on the grey scene and let that become your memory. Let the dim grey scene go slowly out of focus. Concentrate on the sounds and spoken words. What have you said? Let a steady radio static fill those sounds. The static is building and overwhelming the sounds. Concentrate on the dim out-of-focus scene again. If there is anything you can see clearly, let that fade out-of-focus into the dark areas of the memory. Shape that memory, take the pain you feel and think of being content. Let that feeling of comfort wash over you from your head to your toes.
Try to listen again to the sounds of the scene. Can you hear anything above the drone of radio static? All the voices should be muffled. You shouldn't hear anything distinct in the memory now. If you can, add someone speaking a steady stream of random gibberish. A voice in many volumes babbling about nothing in disconnected syllables. Let the radio noise and burbling babbles drown out any words you can still understand. The scene should be dim and out-of-focus like the world when seen in a deep fog or as if seeing the surface world from underwater. Focus on the noise and blurry mess. Like a paintbrush, cover the old memory in broad strokes. Keep the memory out of focus. Let this replace what you felt before. When your mind calls for this memory, let it find this blurry vision instead.
Now take the new vision and let it all pool like water running down a drain. Let the whites in the scene fade to grey. Let the blacks in the scene fade to grey. Let the grey spread slowly over this memory until there is nothing left but a flat shade of uniform grey.
Those sounds you still hear in the scene. Let the static dim slowly. Let the gibberish fade slowly into silence. Let a blissful calm wash those noises away. You should hear it all fade to silence on this now grey memory. There should be nothing left but a calm feeling of peace. Everytime you wish to seek the memory that was there before, you will find only this grey blank page. When you try to remember what was said then on this memory, you will hear only a blissful silence. If you strain to see images or force your mind to reveal the sounds, you will see only shapeless blobs of grey and hear a stream of babbling gibberish until your mind seeks the calm again. You should feel better. You will feel as if many chains which weighted you down are now broken. You will have a feeling of freedom. You should breathe deeply and slowly and wake up refreshed.

Yeah guys, it's a really minor thing that happened; it SHOULDN'T bother me. I thought about drowning myself in BW for the rest of the day.

recent studies have shown that memories are not stored as "memory units" in your brain, rather memories are reconstructed. an implication of this is that our brains have an infinite capacity for memories, within a finite amount of neuron connections. an anology is that in the english language there are a finite amount of words at any given time, yet an english speaker can make an infinite amount of sentences. if you wanna get technical, you either have to psychologically repress that memory (through hypnosis if you have high suggestibility) or you can nip the exact neuron(s) that will make the reconstruction of the memory impossible, yet will not hinder your ability to do everyday functions (this is impossible, for now). good luck!

go watch a really emotional movie or have some sex...

supressing memories really isnt a good thing. They never go away, you just stop thinking about them. They lay dormant in your subconcious and manifest themselves in ways you never realised. Next thing youre doing gay porn, cheating on your wife, abusing your kids, and cant understand why.

psychoanalysis hasnt been proven scientifically =( sorry.

but the psychoanalytic paradigm is useful in therapy though.

I had problems sleeping... have some still... fill your everyday with something to do, talk to people... and that sort of stuff... get a hobby -_-, think of what you have learnt because of the memory... or what you could learn... or whatever I'm just 18 yo --
