 if, by January 1, 2024, I have found a definitive explanation for my childhood amnesia. Otherwise, it resolves as 

To give a brief explanation, without divulging too much personal info:

Potential explanations include, but are not limited to:

My sister and I both have an agreement that "something very bad happened" around early 2002, but neither of us knows exactly what it was - myself because of amnesia, her because she was literally two years old at the time. (Sidenote: some alters in my system DO know, but they won't tell me anything more specific than "it's really bad" and "It would be like opening Pandora's box." Yes, I am/we are very mentally ill. I might make a good case study, though, if anyone knows someone writing a thesis or research paper on trauma and the disorders it can cause. So there's that at least!)

My theory of the potential causes for each type of amnesia goes like this:

Note: above, "in full" means "to the same extent a typical person would remember their childhood at ages 6 and 7," or potentially slightly more than typical given my usually-very-good memory.

 to resolve this as YES. Such evidence could include:

We'll see what happens. I won't be betting on this market, but I would estimate the probability as of May 24 as "less than 30% if I don't find a therapist by early October, greater than 75% if I do."

If I feel that the existence of this market is hazardous to my mental or physical health, if the comments devolve into a cesspool, or if I feel that the market's existence causes problems for Manifold in general, I reserve the right to resolve it as 

 without warning. I'm starting the market listed, since I don't believe it contains any objectionable content, and I genuinely might be a good case study in trauma, but I will not object should admins choose to delist the market.
