Understanding Selective Amnesia and its Connection to Autism
Selective amnesia is characterized by the inability to recall specific events while retaining memory for other information. Autistic individuals may experience memory gaps, such as forgetting significant life events or trauma. This can lead to confusion, frustration, and difficulties in recalling conversations, directions, and appointments. Additionally, selective amnesia can impact emotional memory processing, problem-solving skills, adherence to instructions, and navigation, affecting daily functioning and relationships.
