My first memory was of sitting on a bathroom cabinet in front of the sink and mirror and my mom was in front of me crying!. We were about to go across the Shannondoa (sp) mountains which terrified me and we were leaving with a dark haired man with glasses!. After talking with my mom about it just a few years ago, she told me I was about 3 years old and she had had a fight with her 2nd husband (the man win the glasses who was out of my life completely by the time I was about 5)!.
The rest of my memories are a lot like that- solemn and depressing!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Little!. Very little before 5, and only a few snapshots up to 12,
(And even those may no longer be accurate, it having been shown that we tend to rehearse certain memories, and remember the "replays" of them, which gradually diverge from the original event!.)
S J Gould was superb on this in his article "Muller Bros!. Moving and Storage" published in his essay collection "Eight Little Piggies", cited in the article below!.
I remember crying at the age of 3, being told I had to have glasses!.
And being the outsider at my first class at school: the only one with glasses, the only one that could read!.
"The Prof" was my first nickname!.
I was not taught how to fit in, or that it was OK to be different, but that's more a retrospective analysis than memory!.
I remember my last birthday party at age 12!.
And my parents forgetting my 18th birthday!.
I remember the second house we lived in, but not the first, though I can't draw the room plan (I've tried a few times: memories conflict)!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I have a very difficult time remembering anything from my childhood!. I remember living in England, when I was 2 or 3!. I remember the gerbils that died because it got to cold outside for them!.

I coudln't go anywhere in it alone!.!.!.my older sister had to go with to the bathroom (where oddly enough the only bathroom was upstairs) adn she would wait til I couldn't run after her and leave me stranded with the shadow people!. I remember after my younger sister was born (still in England) and mom was whipping down her abilical(sp!?) cord and gave me the cotton ball to throw away!.!.!.and my older brother accidently stabbed me in my hand with a butcher knife!.!.!.mom thinking it was ketchup, being held down by 4 nurses and them using iodine, which hurt like F*CKING HELL!, and then the stitches!. I remember climbing into the highest window and preparing to jump when I was pulled back in!.!.
Then we were suddenly in Washington (state)!.!.!.I dont' remember how we got there!.!.!.I just know were were there!. I remember the horror of having to sleep on a plastic matterase becuase I wet the bed and my two sisters didn't want me sleeping with them on the big bed because I might have an accident!. We were robbed one night we were out and after that night I moved myself to behind the door where I wouldn't be seen!. The voices were getting louder and more pushy and the shadow people were getting bigger!.
I vagly remember living in florida for a few months with my grandparents but being too sick (for much of our stay there) for me to school!.!.my grandparents didn't realized I was allergic to milk and would give me milk with every meal and ice cream for dessert everynight!.

The voices told me to take the tylonal!.!.!.they didn't say how much but I took 2 full bottles of children's tylonal!. They were sweet so it was easier to take them then you'd think!.

Everything! My earliest memory was when I was 1 year old, my Aunt Lillian came from far away in a Ford woody station wagon with a man with bright red/orange hair, who was introduced to the family as her new husband!. She was holding siena brown puppy in her arms and gave him to my sister, and said, "take care of him, please!." The adults had words and they were off!. I never saw them again and we had that puppy for 18 years!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
