You would know: Of course you would know, unless you were in an alcoholic or drug induced coma. This sort of concern is evidence of a potentially serious mental health disorder. (You seem to know that, since you checked "Psychiatry" as one of your topic tags.) Please consider professional counseling. I suggest it from compassion, not criticism. Good luck.
