Your Earliest Memory
    #19119156 - 11/11/13 06:04 AM (10 years, 2 months ago)

Think wayyy back as far as you can remember. What's the earliest memory that you have? How old were you, approximately? Was it a good memory or was it a bad memory? (I'll tell you mine later.) Have you noticed a difference in your memories as you got older; I mean do you tend to remember the bad stuff more than the good, nowadays?

I remember them both about equally.  My first memory seems to be when I was a babe in my mothers arms. She was smoking a cig.  She claimed she quit just before I was born but after many years of denial she found a pic that confirmed my memory. I must have been about three months old.  In the memory however I'm outside the scene watching it.

I find it really hard to distinguish memories from things I know about myself through stories.

Does anybody else have this problem?

I'm not sure it's a problem even...

Wow, three months old? That's incredible.

My earliest memory is of me sitting in my high chair, and my mother was feeding me some delicious Gerber's baby food, hehe. :baby: I think I was less than 3 years old. I've noticed that most of my childhood memories are good memories, but as I got older, I found myself remembering the bad ones more than the good ones. I'm not sure why.

When I was two years old at the Museum of Natural History in NYC I started crawling up the leg of the wooly mammoth and set the alarm off. Police came in and had to search the premises.

I climbed from a crib. I knocked over the steaming kettle that was a vaporizer for me and my bothers who had colds. I burned my feet.

I was staring at my grandmothers niagara falls lamp which rotated andmade an illusion of water falling.

I dreamed I fell down the stairs and my head fell off.

I was 3 years old. My folks were broke and we lived with my bubbie.

My earliest memories are from around 4-6 years old.  I was living in New York and I just remember vague snatches, but not sure which is the earliest.  There was a plastic playground full of tubes like at a fast food restaurant that would always shock me with static electricity.  I once saw a girl fall off of the top of the slide at this playground and crack her head open.  I distinctly remember the blood not so much falling but drizzling from her head like syrup in an unbroken stream. 

I remember my mom hanging out with this guy who brought me a huge bundle of balloons.  It was so big and pulled so hard that I was afraid of being carried away.  Turns out my mom was having an affair with this guy and brought me along, real classy... 

My mom's Brazilian friend had a tiny New York apartment filled with these little scary tribal looking piggy banks that looked like monsters made from coconut husks and bristles. My dad would let me sit in his lap and think I was steering the car off of the ferry.  I had my first kisses with both a boy and a girl in a Popples tent in the living room, but we thought kissing was just putting our lips together and tilting our heads from side to side.

My earliest memory is one of these two... I didn't know the order until I asked my mother, and she told me this one, but until then, in my mind, they were like the same day.

Mine was when I was either two or three. I remember just screaming at the top of my lungs because of this really loud noise. My family and I were staying at this hotel, and the fire alarm for the entire building went off. We then had to stand outside freezing in the cold while these firetrucks came. We were outside for an hour, and I just remember crying my ass off because the noise scared me so much.

The other one was a car crash. I remember coming to in the back seat of a car, with an officer lady asking me if I was alright. I had apparently been sleeping when we got into the accident. Both cars were wrecked, and the opposing driver was drunk; luckily, no one was seriously hurt.

... My earliest memorizes were really traumatizing... hah

BPM III* of my birth. I revivified my birth on 07/04/1973 on two hits of Orange Sunshine insufflated. When the experience ended, (revivification is not memory, it is reliving an event), it had been so psychotic a break from ordinary reality, that I couldn't understand upon opening my eyes why I was seeing a 19 year, 360 day old guy and not an infant. Stan Grof would understand, most people would not believe this. It was pre-verbal, crushingly suffocating, primally terrifying, and yet powerfully polymorphously sexual. The Eros balanced the Thanatos, Life outweighed Death.

After that: Being held by one of my parents as a baby and receiving my first injection, probably polio vaccine. I screamed, and my mother said "Oh, the doctor accidentally stuck you with his pen." I knew that old glass syringe with the needle was no pen. :nono:

I have 2 and I'm not sure which is the earlier...

One being: laying in bed and my teddy bear falling apart then running out to my parents screaming and crying... very traumatic

The other was crapping my pants while there was some sort of party on at our place. My mum took me to the toilet and emptied the contents of said pants into the toilet... gotta love mums!

I can't call upon my earliest memory. My memories trigger depending on what is going on in reality. If something going on can trigger my earliest memory then it will.

That was beautiful man. I wish I could re-experience the beauty and the wonder of childhood again; feeling what it's like to just pop into existence. That's how LSD makes me feel; like I'm alive for the very first time, having just been born, taking nothing for granted, and in awe and amazement of life itself.

I can remember fragments of my childhood, some dating back to when I was in kindergarten (so I'd say about three or four-ish). They were weird memories, not bad, but not good either.

As a kid I didn't have a memory that I paid attention to, I remembered details about things but never about myself. It's a little bit the same these days, but now that I have a history/past I can remember things about myself, usually mistakes I have made, but when I get feelings of nostalgia, they're always good memories and are weirdly psychedelic.

My first memory... I think... is of when I must have been two years old and I'm looking into my baby sister's cradle/crib and seeing her for the first time with one, maybe two of our pet dogs leaning over the railing and looking at her too, next to me.

From what I recall my earliest memory was of my climbing up my attic ladder when I was 4 or 5 and my mom telling me to climb down. I started to climb down slipped, fell and slammed my head into a marble table. Then I remember having a bloody green dishcloth on the back of my head in an old ford Taurus on the way to get staples in my head. For years I always thought my mom pushed me. But does anyone have their memory triggered by smell?

I was sitting in my blue, corduroy umbrella stroller at an ice cream shop with my grandparents.  I spilled vanilla ice cream on my doll's head.  I thought it would stain forever.  I had to be maybe three years old at most.

I was around 3 probably.  I remember a vivid image of looking up at windows covered by blinds while the sun was streaming in, creating a dappled contrast between the light and shadow.

My next earliest memory is probably when I was 4, running around in a playground at a park.  The sudden realization that "I" existed, or that I was a thinking, aware being with self-consciousness struck me abruptly and for the first time.  :eek:

My earliest memory is of a time I was a toddler, standing in my crib, holding onto the top rail and wondering.  I don't know how old I was but I'm sure it was around a year.

I recall, very vividly, how I was just idly speculating about life-force; specifically the life-force that powered my own existence, and wondering how many existences it had powered before mine, and how many more it would go on to power.

I'm pretty sure that I couldn't speak or understand the spoken language yet; and yet I was having this speculation and very matter-of-factly so.  It didn't seem at all special to me, yet this memory has surfaced out of the blue many times, seemingly every year or so and then fades and I forget about it until the next time.

The next earliest memory I have is a bit more traumatic.  I was 3-1/2 and my sister had just been born.  This was in '42 and America was now at war.  My dad, a professional army officer, was home on leave for the event; but I was living in Minneapolis, MN with my paternal grandparents due to marital problems between my parents.

My dad wanted me to join them (in Augusta, GA)  but my grand-dad could not travel.  So, they compromised:  They bought one ticket, tied it to my suit, and took me down to the train station.  In those days, every train station in the country was filled with soldiers on the move.  They looked around, found a young NCO who was headed south, and put me in his care before saying adios.

You're damn right, I was terrified!  I clung to that NCO until midway, when he turned me over to another who was going closer to my destination, and I clung to the new guy until we did it again for the last time.

I probably had a good time, but the dominant memory I have is terror at being abandoned and having no idea how to contact my family. 

Somehow, I survived intact.  Well, relatively...

I'm pretty sure that I couldn't speak or understand the spoken language yet; and yet I was having this speculation and very matter-of-factly so.  It didn't seem at all special to me, yet this memory has surfaced out of the blue many times, seemingly every year or so and then fades and I forget about it until the next time.




Thinking back on my childhood its a wonder how clear and direct a lot of my early contemplations were, throughout the years I basically took the same approach to examining life as I do now. Its a wonder that this species is capable of reflection on its own existence and anything pertaining to it, yet consistently fucks up everything as a whole.

From what I recall my earliest memory was of my climbing up my attic ladder when I was 4 or 5 and my mom telling me to climb down. I started to climb down slipped, fell and slammed my head into a marble table. Then I remember having a bloody green dishcloth on the back of my head in an old ford Taurus on the way to get staples in my head. For years I always thought my mom pushed me. But does anyone have their memory triggered by smell?




Had a psychology of children class in the early 80s. The professor said that our earliest memories are often based on smell.

When I was a little kid, like around the age of 4, my mom used to go grocery shopping at this store that was down the street. The area where you grab your cart from had a very unique smell to it. A decade and a half later, I went to an indoor skatepark which was formerly a grocery store. The back room near the bathrooms had a very unique smell to it. It had the exact same smell that the store my mom used to go to. It's crazy how your brain remembers scents so well. I've had a lot of memory flashbacks caused by scents.
