    One of the most well known forms of memory loss is Amnesia; it is a medical state in which the memory is damaged. The origin of amnesia is natural or functional. Natural causes consist of damage caused to the brain because of trauma or disease, or at times because of consumption of certain drugs.

    Another ill effect of amnesia is the inability to envisaging the future. In anterograde amnesia, fresh events contained in the direct memory are not transported to the permanent as long-term memory, so the victim will not be able to bear in mind anything that take place after the onset of this type of amnesia for more than a short period of time following the event.
