Hi. There could be an underlying cause to why this is happening. Please consult a psychiatrist at the earliest to figure out cause and cope in a healthy way so that it has the least amount of impact on your daily life.

Hi,
It's not uncommon for people to experience memory difficulties during times of stress, anxiety, or depression. Forgetfulness, difficulty recalling specific details, and feeling disoriented or confused about familiar places can all be symptoms of these mental health conditions. However, forgetting significant chunks of childhood memories, such as your entire six-year-old year, may be more unusual.
While occasional memory lapses are normal, persistent memory problems should be evaluated by a healthcare professional to rule out any underlying medical or psychological conditions.
Additionally, chronic stress, anxiety, and depression can have a significant impact on cognitive function, including memory.
Seeking support from a mental health professional can help in identifying the root cause of your memory difficulties and developing strategies to manage them effectively.
