#the mandela effect is a curse to people with memory problems
Text
One of the worst things about having memory problems (for me at least) is when you have a totally mundane memory about something that somehow manage to stick with you for so long and someone says “that was never a thing”, so you spend months or years thinking it’s not real and you just made it up until someone else comes along and says “yeah I totally remember [x] thing, loved/hated that stuff growing up”.
And then suddenly you have validation that its real so you start questioning everything else people told you wasn’t real and leads to more and more anxiety as your world kind of crumbles without actually falling apart if that makes sense.
#brindle speaks#My friends mom also has memory problems so i do my absolute best to help her keep track of certain things#but my best isn't all that great because I got the same problem#so it'll be random stuff that i notice or happened to remember out of the blue#any way#the thing that prompted this post was my boyfriend telling me he remembered having the same kind of kids cold medicine that i did#it was a dissolvable almost sticker like thing that you put on your tongue#I think it was mostly for kids that had troubles with the tase of most liquid medicines#None of my friend's knew what it was#so i assumed it was just a weird thing my brain made up#the mandela effect is a curse to people with memory problems#anyway boyf knew exactly what i was talking about#and i never felt more validated#like seriously#you have no idea how upsetting it can be to be repeatedly told that you're misremembering something#only to be proven right#on the inside im just screaming I TOLD YOU SO#because for once in my life I actually remembered something
