Don't worry about it, I can relate to what you're trying to say as well. Some people on here think this is a call for sympathy, I don't, so now I just avoid having a discussion with those people overall because it seems they're more invested in understanding a fictional person rather than a real person with similar issues (when in fact, stories are meant to inspire people and teach things. I too understood a difference between myself and Kaneki - he's consistently chosen a self-destructive path, as if he always gives into temptation and his emotions as a whole). I think it's very brave of you to share your story.

Seeing yourself in your dreams telling you things is pretty common actually. I've had those dreams long before I ever found out about TG, and it's usually about the negativity in my life. I think what you should do is meditate, really. Give yourself 10-15 minutes, you don't have to sit for a whole hour or two hours. Just breath in and out, listen to your breath instead of focusing on your thoughts. You'll be in the clear much more.

I think give your memories time. I've had severe memory issues myself, but the more I tried to remember, the more it didn't come, in fact it felt like I was further away from it. The thing is to try and keep yourself busy, get your body healthy again, and if you can exercise. The endorphins produced in your brain after exercise helps you feel good about yourself as whole. It might even trigger some memories. The more busy you are, you'll even forget that you forgot something, and by some miracle, you'll remember it as if it never left you. The mind plays tricks like those.

I wish the best of luck on your endeavours! If there's things you feel like talking about, could always sign up on here and post on my wall :)
