Amy Milton: Podemos modificar os recordos?

Podemos modificar os recordos?

Os traumas e o TEPT reconectan o noso cerebro, sobre todo a memoria, e poden desenterrar respostas emocionais cando a persoa se axita. Podemos eliminar estos desecadeantes sen borrar o recordo en sí? Coñece a incrible investigación clínica de Amy Milton, neuróloga, que propón editar a memoria para así desactivar os efectos daniños dos recordos dolorosos e ofrecer un potencial camiño a unha mellora na saúde mental

Trauma can distort how memory works, leaving emotional triggers untethered from time or place. Research shows that nearly 90 percent of people experience traumatic events, and up to half of sexual violence survivors develop PTSD. New science reveals that memories, once thought permanent, can be altered under specific conditions. By targeting emotional memory without erasing factual recollection, emerging treatments may help people reclaim their lives from the grip of trauma.
