Intermittent amnesia mainly refers to a certain period of time when it is easier to forget things, sometimes good and sometimes bad. Amnesia, on the other hand, is one of the manifestations of forgetting things easily all the time, and is closely related to emotions. Although the pathogenic mechanism is not conclusive, psychological factors are generally considered to be the trigger for the disease. It is generally believed that patients may have inherent defects caused by genes and life trauma, and when faced with stressful life events, they are unable to respond to them in a mature manner and dissociate. Treatment is usually based on psychotherapy, including identifying and dealing with stressors appropriately, moderate listening, hypnotherapy or medication-assisted sessions, and encouraging the patient to overcome symptoms (e.g., memories). If intermittent memory loss is psychologically or emotionally induced, it is important to relax, achieve psychological balance, learn to reduce stress, and open up. If pathological amnesia is caused by an organic cause, you should go to the hospital in time for examination and early detection and treatment. Paying attention to rest, combining work and rest, living an orderly life and maintaining an optimistic, positive and upbeat attitude will help a lot to prevent the disease.
