Was I molested 11 years ago? -

[Pruto]

I like to think I wasn't and I don't remember that happening but its the only explanation on why my mind is so deformed.

Is there a way to remember ever that happened even if I don't?

 

[Poppavalyim Andropoff]

Yes. Commence Troon out ASAP

 

[Pruto]

Yes. Commence Troon out ASAP

I thought molestation made you gay, not trans.

 

[Madre Muerte]

No, I molested you yesterday.

 

[Pruto]

No, I molested you yesterday.

I also don't remember that

 

[Madre Muerte]

I also don't remember that

You have Altimers Pluto

 

[Pruto]

You have Altimers Pluto

I'm too young for Altimers

Repressed memories have never been proven conclusively to be an observable, verifiable psychological phenomena. When specific steps were taken to avoid having the psychologists influence the recall of a person's repressed memories, the patients would recall a bunch of scrambled nonsense that was probably half-remembered dreams or shit they saw on TV while they were drunk/high.

If you got railed in the ass when you were a kid you'd probably fucking remember it anyway, no matter how much you might not want to.

 

[Daisymae]

Depends.

Did you know @Miss Tommie Jayne Wasserberg

Rape isn't the only things that can fuck up a forming mind; you're giving it too much credit.

Yeah now everyone calls it dissociative amnesia, and it works exactly the same.

Depends.

Did you know @Miss Tommie Jayne Wasserberg

Thank the lord not, my only fear is that I might have in different timelines/multiverses.

 

[Llama king]

You tell me you're the one who cares

 

[Pruto]

You tell me you're the one who cares

Why would I ask if I knew?

Keep going, you might be into something

It works exactly the same, including the part where its messily defined and not completely certain to actually exist, as it is supported poorly by existing research. They can't even isolate the cause, its purely theoretical at this point.

It also has the critical difference of causing severe depersonalization complete with trance-like episodes and possible psychotic attacks. Overall its indicative of a much greater disorder than just not being able to remember shit and being a social fuckup.

This is the case for like almost every single mental disease.

Do you believe we don't have subconscious memories?

I think they are considerably simpler than is popularly believed. There's no neurological evidence that the unconscious mind has the kind of storage capacity required for that scenario.

This one's a bit worse because its been recently fucked with.

What even is neurological evidence? it's like a physical file in the brain that be read by scientists or something?

Sufficent neuron density but more importantly the density of connections between them, in certain locations of the brain responsible for carrying out unconscious actions. In order for a part of the brain to store unconscious memories, it must be a part of the brain repsonsible for handling unconscious actions while at the same time having the capacity to store memories, and the level of communicaiton neccesary with the rest of the brain to take in that information in the first place.

Even the idea of the "subconscious" as definied in popular psychology has been called into question. The leading theory to explain the idea of the "subconscious" is that certain centers of the brain work independently from each other and its up to the frontal lobe to arrange the information gathered in process in a way that makes logical sense. This would however mean that there is infact no such thing as a "subconscious" and instead the brain is made up of multiple autonomic structures that are dependent on each other, kind of like how our internal organs are self-contained structures but dependent on the rest of the body to function and survive. In the same way the separate parts of the brain are distinct structures that still require the assistance of the other pieces to process and store information in a reasonable way.

Even that though is a vast oversimplification of what they're finding. Neurology is still a fairly young field.

This is an stricly physiological take on the human mind, its great to explain things like memories but it fails to even recognize the psychic structure and its inmense complexities.

There's a good reason on why, to this day, psychology is still a pseudo-science as much as it tries to be an objective one.

You can't just pretend everything is is just a wired ionic exchange and get mad when this doesn't explain or predict shit on any consistent basis regarding human behavior.
