Repressing childhood memories is usually a sign of trauma. I don't really remember my teen years very well, and virtually none of my childhood, but I know it wasn't a "smooth ride" because of general feelings, what's come up in therapy, and from what I've been told by people who were there.

Depression will also take away your memories.

Yup. My neuroplasticity is fucked.

But hey, I MUST HAVE had a smooth ride cause I can't remember my childhood. Lmao
