  Please reset or delete my account – I want to create a memorable password but as I’ve used it in the past I cannot?

  Every WordPress.COM blog has a sole owner. It is the person with the WordPress.COM username account who registered the blog under that username account and a single associated email address, (which is the unique identifier) , and who is the original Admin of the blogs registered under that username account.

  You have to be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog’s dashboard.

  You can change your email address on your accounts page at https://wordpress.com/me/account

  Be sure to consult these guides:

  Clicking this link should display all blogs registered under the same username, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden

  If you do not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then
  follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibility

  If the log-in information is lost visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword

  It’s also important to know that you should never use a password on more than a single site. Using the same password on multiple sites makes all your online accounts vulnerable to hacking. And, the most common way for hackers to hack into your blog is to hack your email account first. How to Keep Your Blog Safe https://onecoolsite.wordpress.com/2014/03/02/how-to-keep-your-blog-safe/
