After just unlocking the hero badge in this weeks quiz, it noted "as long as you don't have amnesia", which brought to mind the fact that after a dreadful car crash a few weeks ago, I did forget everything, I mean I could remember passwords and skills and such, but names and faces were gone, everyone was a stranger to me again, heck I didn't know who I was until I started picking up my memories again (most people I was close enough to who I knew kind of reminded me slowly but surely).

I think the most messed up thing was literally meeting my own parents and sister again, but I have got most of my memory back now (I think), so in the interests of my new persona (can't be sure I am anything like the old me) I wonder, have any of you guys ever forgot everything, after a massive accident, fight, plane landing on you head or just plain random memory loss? And how did or would you respond to being freed of all of your past, no good memories, but no bad ones either?

You're lucky. A lot of people with amnesia never regain their memories.

Nah, never had amnesia. Had a minor concussion once though, with some strange effects, such as not being able to formulate complex sentences, which is very frustrating, and partial and temporary blindness, which is scary.

Never amnesia though. (BUT HOW CAN I BE SURE?)

Wow. Just, the whole feeling of amnesia would only be beaten by a being blind guy who sees for the very first time.

I was in a car accident once, I don't think I forgot many people but I had to re-learn all motor skills. It was a big day when I figured out how to sit up on my own.

Scary stuff OP, can't say I've experienced anything similar as i've never had a major head injury, all i can say is i'm glad your memories came back.
