try me

Okay. I used to live on a closed dark place, floating; and later on the place was quite small. What could that be? My only possible answer is my mother's womb.

whoa
do you have vivid memories of that or is it something you feel deep inside?

What I only remember is that I used to play about not touching the "walls" if I could place a name to it; game that didn't work eventually.

If I'm to write off that as my earliest memories; my earliest would be one of me lying down on what I now think was a baby crib and both my parents were looking at me. I clearly remember the ceiling light was too bright and it hurted my eyes. It was from this memory that I remember what I just told you. I was remembering my old game, and I then was only lying on my back while I extended my feet and wasn't touching the limits. It was an old game of mine.

I think it's my birthday -- after my family sang the "How old are you" part, I didn't say anything. Then they were like "Okay.... may God bless you"

Either that or my surgery

Mine are all related to trauma.

My earliest memory is meeting my roommate for the first time!

I have a ton from around when I was three: losing a bouncy ball under the sofa, sitting on the countertop as my parents dealt with my nth bee sting right on the top of my head, crawling over my bed, running in the backyard to see the rainbows left after the rain, etc but I don’t know which ones came first

There's one from when I was quite young (I don't know if it's a real memory though) I was maybe near 1 years old, but I remember being at my grandma's and I was just sitting in the hallway with my cousin who was 4 at the time, she was lying on her tummy and were colouring in bible related colouring book, I mean i was scribbling the crayon on the paper but I didn't have any thoughts It just felt like excitement, I can't explain it.. Just seeing and feeling but no language no decernable thoughts really.

The rest of my memories start around about two years old, like remembering living in a studio flat and holding my baby brother, theres chunks missing between events but my memory starts to become clearer and constant after 3.

a classmate on my very first day of school yelling at the teacher and asking her for fenistil to put on her mosquito bites

 

[Abeamus]

My memory is too poor for that

 

[Myco]
