Symptom #4: Lost Memory
Many people who suffer from PTSD aren’t able to remember certain aspects of the experience that led to the trauma. Many people have completely forgotten the experience altogether, by blocking it out so it’s not available to conscious memory. These people may benefit from therapy, so seeking medical attention should be done as soon as possible.
People who have blocked out their traumatic memories are the most difficult to treat because they may not even be aware that they have a problem. They may respond irrationally to certain situations without knowing the underlying reason.
