What does one lose one has amnesia?

There are no specific things that you would forget. It depends on what kind of amnesia you get, and how it acts out on you. Some things you might forget are friends, family, events that happened, and sometimes when it gets severe, your own name. Retrograde amnesia makes you forget some, most, or all of the things that happened to you before what caused you to get amnesia. People you met, things that you did, etc. Anterograde amnesia is the kind of amnesia that causes you to not be able to create any more memories. Of course, there are many other types of amnesia. If you get retrograde amnesia, or any other amnesia that makes you forget things, there are no specific things that you would DEFINITELY forget.
