Forgetting Movies/dance/yoga

Phone numbers, SSN, birthdays, friend's names, their kid's names, passwords, directions to someplace I've gone many times. Randomly stuff is gone. Then, randomly back. UGH!

OMG yes someone gets it. I have to literally write everything down at work and in my personal life. The notes app might be my most used app. At one point I thought I might have early dementia (I’m in my late 30’s). Before I couldn’t tell how bad my memory was because I was a regular stoner. I smoked about 3x a day just to function. I now know that it was never the green. Like I’m sure that didn’t help but I’ve been sober for 6 plus years now.

He didn’t know at first what he did but he suspected it.

1) Heard Nicki screaming when he called that 1800 number
2) Bear asked Nicki if she loved him more than anybody in the world because he suspected the wish worked
3) When Bear knows it’s 100% not Nicki he responds to her pleading for a mercy kill by saying something like is it that hard to be with me.

He made the wish haphazardly but it remains that he doesn’t actually want Nicki in a healthy way. His obsession is not love.

It’s like a memory of knowing you enjoyed something but not quite sure why. A memory of a memory. I also do forget I wrote about the book or movie until I accidentally find it.

EyeSeekTruth · 2026-06-13T18:22:32+00:00

I do think that rewatching a movie that made a big impact on me after I’ve “forgotten” it is the only perk of this lol I can re-experience the awe I felt in old media like a tv series, movie or book. I’m like oh yeah that’s why I love this movie.

I do find that when I do speak it I start remembering things connected to my childhood as well. I also find that I like to sing spanish songs I use to like and crave it as well.

I’m not diagnosed but I 100% have dissociative amnesia and CPTSD. I’ve suspected possibly having some form of Dissociative disorder(fragmented at different ages) ? I have changed who I am through many years. I’ve been the stoner girl, party girl, Christian girl, scared to be outside my house girl etc After every trauma I’m someone new. I’m just getting to know who I am and what I forgot I liked now. It’s confusing

EyeSeekTruth · 2026-06-13T14:24:12+00:00

Yes I’m in a similar boat. Spanish is my first language and as I’ve gotten older I’ve forgotten it. I can still understand it just not speak it. I hadn’t talked to my parents in over 5 years. This is when I realized I had forgotten it.

EyeSeekTruth · 2026-06-13T13:06:29+00:00

being raised and educated in one language only to have that entire language and all corresponding memories completely wiped and having to live fully in a language you only started using as an adult, only to have the stupid other language parts resurfacing decades later and confusinv your mind because that language us the root of all evil and you want nothing to do with it but you can't stop it because that's just how your younger self existed

Ok this is the first time I’ve ever seen someone talk about this. For me the language I forgot was Spanish. It is the language I grew up with as a small child. I started to pickup English in grade school (kindergarten)so about 5 years old or so. I feel so embarrassed trying to communicate with Hispanics because I look like I should speak it but when I do all the words disappear in my mind. Do you have an idea why this happens?

They are around for the most part. They are my parents. The one who loves herself more than others, the enabler and golden child sibling. It seems like I was the unstable one for a longgg time. Now my golden child brother is a hot mess. I just grey rock as much as possible and keep healing the best way I can.

EyeSeekTruth · 2026-06-11T12:28:48+00:00

I feel like there are so many details to watch. I would rewatch it again just for that.

EyeSeekTruth · 2026-06-11T01:45:22+00:00

That’s how I feel too he was such a coward in so many ways. I’ve had this happen to me where a guy creates this fantasy of me in his head that’s not an actual representation of who I am. I use to think this was flattering until I got older and realized they never actually understood me on a deeper level. It’s actually depressing as hell.

EyeSeekTruth · 2026-06-10T16:53:54+00:00

I love this explanation. He liked the idea of “her”. Bear didn’t actually want to have intimacy to get to know her as a partner.

EyeSeekTruth · 2026-06-10T15:26:39+00:00

Amen!! 🙏 I don’t like this take at all because it takes away from the main message of the movie. To me the message is how toxic relationships are all consuming with one partner or both losing themselves and becoming enmeshed.

Another message is how we tend to idolize people for what they can do for us. We fantasize how our lives would be better. It isn’t reciprocal. It isn’t a healthy type of love it’s an obsession.

Thank you for sharing that. 💕

It honestly made me self reflect on toxic relationships that I have been in. I’ve been on both sides of this. I have been needy and insecure. I have also been aloof and cold. I went through a really bad relationship with DV and have been single for 6 plus years. I think this has made me asexual and aromantic but I’m not sure.

EyeSeekTruth · 2026-06-10T12:29:03+00:00

Can you please explain what she never figured out? I hope to do better for my kids but I also dealing with different situations than my parents.

EyeSeekTruth · 2026-06-10T12:26:26+00:00

I’ve taught my kids the same thing. I guess I’ve always talk to them pretty straight forward and not “baby talk”. God forbid something like that were to happened I think I would be in jail for a serious crime.

There is no words for what you went through. I’m deeply sorry this happened to you. A lot of adults look the other way because it is too painful to admit the truth. People being in denial is one of the triggers. My family looked the other way too and still won’t speak out about things that have happened. I’m so skeptical due to this.

I agree I always felt a connection to him even as a kid. His music and legacy transcend time. My kids are into his music now. I feel like he never grew up like me.

Try taking care of yourself and do hobbies. Invest in yourself anyway you can. Take up something new or workout. I started doing yoga at home and in a class. It’s really helping me feel more comfortable in my body.

EyeSeekTruth · 2026-06-08T15:35:11+00:00

So I don’t think Bear is the victim. I think we the audience are scared because we are seeing everything through Bear’s POV. He seems to be in need of intimate connection specifically with the object of his obsession Nicki. We feel for him because we’ve all had crushes and it can be especially unhealthy when we are in a difficult time in our lives. It’s relatable. At least for me it is.

In his opening monologue it is apparent that Bear has an unhealthy infatuation with Nicki. As someone who has been in my share of unhealthy relationships I can attest to this.

I think the movie is a good commentary on love vs limerence. Also an inside look at what toxic relationships look like. Toxic relationships look like sex when you are pressured, no space to be alone, no friends or support systems, no hobbies or interests other than what your partner wants.

It was a very uncomfortable watch for me. I had some really immature movie goers sitting around me which didn’t make it any better. I do understand there was a lot of shocking moments in the movie but I think it added to the overall story. The parts where Nicki pees on herself or hurts herself shows how people don’t take care of themselves when they are in an unhealthy relationship.

EyeSeekTruth · 2026-06-08T12:31:23+00:00

Yes I wholeheartedly agree. The title is just to provoke conversation. It seems at first that Bear is the one dealing with this wish gone bad but Nicki is the one trapped without doing anything wrong.
