HEYY JOHNNY SINS BACK WITH ANOTHER ANSWER! BOOM!

lol, anyways

During a blackout, a person's ability to form memories is affected because the lack of light interferes with the processes in the brain that consolidate and store new memories. When it is dark, the production of the hormone melatonin increases, which can impair the ability to encode and recall new information. Additionally, stress and anxiety related to the blackout can also negatively impact memory formation. However, it's important to note that blackouts are usually temporary and their effects on memory are usually not long-lasting.
