What is it called when you lost all you memory?
Memory loss that is severe enough to impact a person's ability to function in daily life is often referred to as amnesia.

Amnesia can be caused by various factors, including head injury, illness, or psychological trauma.
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.

Can someone with amnesia only forget one person completely from their life?
Yes, it is possible for someone with amnesia to forget only one person while retaining memories of others. This phenomenon can occur due to specific types of amnesia, such as retrograde amnesia, where memories of certain individuals or events are selectively lost. The brain's complex memory system can sometimes lead to isolated memory loss based on emotional significance or trauma associated with that person. However, the specifics can vary widely depending on the individual's condition and the underlying causes of their amnesia.
