Help.

If anybody is familiar with temporary memory loss or hearing loss, let me know. I need advice, ASAP.

"Specific situations"?

Was this full on amnesia, or. . .?

I see.

Thankfully, I don't think I'm forgetting responsibilities because I'm fairly certain I'm just forgetting certain people, but it still is worrying. But I'll keep this in mind to see if it'll help.

I don't think anyone posting here is native - or at least, I don't really see too many natives posting here.

I think a lot of the issues do happen to deal with chroma, but if this is chroma related, I don't know why it's becoming an issue now instead of months prior.

It's okay. It's not awkward at all.

But moonlacing, huh. . . I haven't actually tried that. It might be worth a shot, at least. If that doesn't work though, I'll just have to see if there's a Plan B.

[dereban]

I wouldn't do this sort of thing with someone I didn't trust. Don't worry.

But yeah, finding a plan B would be good, just in case the moonlacing technique is only a temporary heal.

I've had experience with temporary memory loss.

I can only suggest a strong blow to the head to solve things.

[dereban]

Isn't a blow to the head usually how to get amnesia?!

[chalicejoker]

The first blow, yeah.

But a second one will clear it right up. That's how it went with me.

[dereban]

That worries me. I'd like to regain my memories without any pain.

[chalicejoker]

Anything worth having is worth suffering for.

Sometimes it is a necessary struggle.

[dereban]

That's definitely true.

But I want to try some painless methods first.

[chalicejoker]

Fair enough. You can keep that in your deck as a trump card, I suppose.

[doctorize]

... May I ask what happened that has caused this to become an issue?

[dereban]

I have zero idea.

Which is why I'm asking.

[doctorize]

Well, have you been to a doctor yet? Because this sounds like something you should go to the hospital for rather than asking people on here.

[Says the man who treated his own gunshot wound, like a hypocrite.]

[dereban]

I don't exactly trust the doctors here.

[doctorize]

Why not?

[dereban]

I'm speaking more on the native doctors here since I haven't exactly dealt too much with Moonblessed ones, but just the way they treat people is uncomfortable.

[doctorize]

I see. In that case, have you tried the Second Nature clinic? I work there alongside other doctors that are not the native ones working here.

[dereban]

I haven't, but does anyone there specialize in this sort of thing?

[doctorize]

I do have some experience in dealing with patients that have memory loss issues, but as for hearing loss, you'll likely have to speak with one of my co-workers about instead.

[Now if it had been a problem with her losing her sight, then he would be your guy... or maybe still not actually...]

[dereban]

I'll think about it.

What's the place's hours?

[doctorize]

[he sends over the information of the clinic's hours, as well as directions on how to get there

Once he does so, he then texts--]

If anything else comes up before you're able to come in, please be sure to let us know so that we can prepare for any further treatment that may need to be done.

[dereban]

I'll keep that in mind.
