Are there any drugs that can help someone remove bad memories?

Question by Magic Marker: Are there any drugs that can help someone remove bad memories?
I’ve had a really bad life and I constantly think about suicide. I think if I didn’t remember how bad things always were for me that I’d be hopeful and able to move on. Therapy didn’t help me. I’ve gone several times and I’m done.

I am pretty sure there is no drug like that, only because to get rid of memories, making you be in a sort of amnesia state, you would not be able to choose which memories or thoughts you would want to take away. You might forget your familys names or your phone number or street address and various significant memories you need to remember. The best thing to do is get anti-depressant medicine.

Nope and a lobotomy might not be worth the trouble. Remember we all suffer heart aches. I had a cousin murdered when I was a kid, another cousin had heart failure which resulted in death before I was 8 years old.

Two years ago my mother was murdered and my step dad committed suicide. We have their three legged dog as a reminder. Only months before this my grand dad (who raise me most of my life) died of cancer and my brother was in a car accident that resulted in 3rd degree burns to his crotch from the motor falling in his lap (he will never be able to have kids with a woman due to this accident). My girl friend had a miscarriage. My Uncle Crazy died from cancer and my dad almost died of a drug over-dose after his wife left him for another man.

This is the same year I lost my V-card which resulted in me getting the clap, during my two months in port. I did a back-to-back deployment with the Navy. A lot can happen while at sea and when all this took place I felt as though my world was in shambles; waiting over a month while my younger brother was on life support was a nightmare. I was unsure if I would ever be able to talk to him again. Also the let down of Expecting to be a father and the next day the dream disappears.

We all have bad experiences in life. This is part of growing up. Find a talent and share it with the world, but remember our memories are the building blocks that grow us into the people we are meant to be. I have attempted suicide many times, but I’m glade the attempts failed because after experiencing so many deaths and horrid experiences in 2012 I realize how short life is. This is why I live one day at a time and accept that one of these days will eventually be my last. You and I can’t see how either of our chapter will be written unless we choose to live.
