But yeah the "good guy" in memento is definitely broken and trying to fix himself/circumstances, but he is perfectly willing to sacrifice 'other' people in order to accomplish this, definitely not himself.
The movie is pretty ambiguous, but that's not the impression I got. I took it as him using his brokenness to set up unsolvable puzzles for himself, perpetuating the problem, not trying to fix anything.

Oh, he solved them. One dead body after another.

But yeah I think sometimes he was puzzled, but other times he would figure out but then disremember. Like when he finally realized Teddy was using him to knock over drug dealers but there would also be times like he actually felt like he was investigating the "murder" of his wife, although he would also realize that he himself killed her at times. Just a great movie.
