After reading an essay “Inner Shrimp” by Garry Trudeau, in Mirror on America, from my point of view, his case is pretty understandable. From my understanding I believe that it takes a long time for someone to forget their bad memories. Trudeau was dubbed the term “midgets” and was treated irretrievably during his adolescence. Even though things had changed a lot comparing to before the inner shrimp, memory still reminds Trudeau, and makes him uncertain. We might know why most people often try to visit their psychologists. Because sometime is hard for us to control mental problem on our own, that is why the inner shrimp memory remains part of Trudeau life.
