'recalling difficulty' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'agitated international seaman' is the wordplay.
'agitated' indicates anagramming the letters.
'international' becomes 'i' (abbreviation eg in IMF).
'i'+'seaman'='iseaman'
'iseaman' anagrammed gives 'AMNESIA'.
