What would you do?

If someone offered you a pill and said "You will lose you memory of bad things that happened to you, you will forget about relationships and people that hurt you, and you will get to start a new life somewhere else without those memories" would you take that pill?

@zeetee17 I don't think i'll accept the pill because all these things might have shaped my personality directly or indirectly. I don't want any experience to fade away from my life just because they were bad.

@pandanfe

cont.

Also, I can argue that if my life had been as miserable as i couldn't even imagine now, maybe I would have done anything to forget it. In such situation, there's possibility that I would have considered taking the pills.

I would say no, because accepting the pill is the easy choice. We learn, grow, and develop who we are based off of our experiences, and losing those, while wonderful at the time, would ultimately change who you are as a person.

The fact that I don't remember is the issue. Maybe have a pill that will help me remember cause I would really like one of those...

This sounds bad but I honestly would yes I have good things in life but there’s more worse things and I need to forget about them to truly be happy but that’s just me speaking personally

No

Although it would be nice to forget, it's the bad experiences that make you. They teach you and allow you to learn from your mistakes. Given, I've had a pretty normal life with little to no troubles so I would understand if others would take it. Additionally, if you were to start a new life, there is probably at least one person in your old life that would grieve that you are gone.

Yes, I would. I am already trying to block out people that hurt me over the last couple of months, and I would love to get rid of the pain of everything I have been through and start over as a "new" person.
