recurring punctual amnesia (RCPA): a medically unrecognized disorder where a person has an episode of amnesia at a specific time, with it always occurring, regardless of circumstances.
examples of the time loss include:
a specific hour every day
a day of the week
a date/week/month of the year
a specific holiday
the list above is not exhaustive. amnesiac episodes are not associated with changes in behavior or identity. this disorder is often preceded by trauma, although it doesn’t have to be.
