Only one horrific experience I would erase.

On another note.

My therapist told me this amazing story about a rape survivor.

Apparently the woman was plagued with PTSD for quite sometime. Welp, after she overcame the trauma she went on to become a journalist covering war torn nations. The lady would seek out dangerous men to interview. She had zero fcuks to give.

This lady lost ALL chill. It's like once she found her peace again... the lady morphed into some sort of adrenaline junky beast.

Naturally I thought... AWESOME! LOL

Naturally, my therapist felt otherwise due to the extremely polar opposite personality that she developed.

She was of the opinion that it's about balance.

Psssshhh. I'm here for ass whooping names taking will shoot to kill a mutha_er version 2.0 lady LOL

I do think overcoming (going thru something horrible and surviving it) is what teaches you that you can. That does make you feel powerful.

Absolutely Purp!! "If" you manage to come to terms with the trauma, no longer fear the past event, blah blah blah.... you can manage to soar. But it might not be the most elegant take off.

Creole isn't it amazing! I can definitely attest to that theory. Son.... once I regained my composure I was like.... whatever you throw at me I will eat that ish for breakfast.

I too, had to be reeled back in. LOL

I would fight for my RIGHT to walk my dogs at night. Would argue my loved ones down.

Yah..... I eventually came to terms with my inner aggression and need for speed.

The trick, of course, lies in removing just those memories, leaving the rest intact...Our study shows we can do just that in mice — wipe out deeply ingrained drug-related memories without harming other memories.

how exactly is a mouse gonna tell you if other memories are impaired Stern Smile
