What would you do?

@zeetee17 I take it

@zeetee1

A younger part of me would be demanding a handful of these memory obliterating pills. But now that i'm older i would perhaps say no. I am still frightened of the things that happened to me and most of all i hate the person that they've made me become....scared, paranoid, distrustful, isolated.......

But a teeny tiny part of me likes this messed up, non conformist adult. I am who i am and i need no ones approval. Think of Kintsugi....the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold or silver threads. The meaning being....that we are all the more beautiful for having been broken.

I cannot give a definitve answer, we must all find our own path. But what we do all need to learn and practice is self love.....cringe cringe....I struggle with this too. Be whoever you are, stand tall and unapologetic, stick by your principles and see where it takes you. Speak your truth. But be open minded enough to learn along the way.

I would not take the pill! Bad situations, bad people, bad relationships have made me who I am. It has made me more well-rounded and able to relate to others easier.

Bad situations can be made good if you use them to learn and grow. <3

From an ethical standpoint, the decision to take the pill would be entirely up to the individual, and there is no right or wrong answer. Some people might choose to take the pill because they feel burdened by their past and want a fresh start, while others might feel that their memories, both positive and negative, are an important part of who they are and would not want to lose them

From a psychological perspective, it's important to consider the potential impact of removing memories. Memories shape our identity and influence our behavior and emotions. While it might seem appealing to forget painful experiences, those memories also teach us valuable lessons and can help us grow and develop as individuals. In addition, removing memories of people who hurt us might also mean losing memories of those who have helped and supported us, which could have a negative impact on our relationships and social support systems.

Ultimately, the decision to take the pill would depend on each individual's unique situation and personal values. It's important to carefully consider the potential consequences and seek advice from trusted friends, family members, or professionals before making such a life-altering decision.

I would have tattooed all the do's and don'ts on my body and took the pill so that I do all the right things and dont make the same mistakes again :P

I would not take that pill.

The memory of troubles and people overcome have left me key lessons which have formed the person I am today. Without those skills and learnings, which are now my armor, I will be a unknowing innocent newborn, and the same old cycle can repeat.

And so, I would not take that pill. I am stronger without it.
