Delete painful memories from brain

Probably Deaf-Blind is normal to you, but it is not normal to the 300million others.

I define a normal person as in a person without disability in this discussion.

With that definition of yours, you and I aren't normal.

I am Deaf and I use "normal" for them.

Not to the hearing people. We (that included you) aren't considered normal to the hearing people.

Edit: Now I see you see "normal" for the general population, not the deaf people. It really looks like you are talking about the Deaf population as "normal". I don't like to use the word "normal" because it implied that people who don't fit in that group are abnormal. Sorry if I misunderstood you. You and I do see ourselves as "normal" because we can do alot of things. Be careful of how you write.

I seem to recall reading an article or something that they'll provide some form of memory erasure for some patients. Especially patients who've been raped or a victim of sexual abuse.

The employment rate among the disabled is high not because they are disabled but because of discrimination.

don't you mean unemployment?

ECT should only be used as a last resort tx. There are too many side effects for it to be used in any but the most severe cases that do not respond to any other form of tx.

ECT was recommended for me years ago due to my treatment-resistant depression (which i later learned was a misdiagnosis), but i refused. my current psychiatrist also asked me about having ECT due to my rapid cycling bipolar, but i told him i couldn't have the procedure performed even if i wanted due to my ci's which is too bad because if i didn't have implants, i'd elect to have it done.

While removing painful memories may be good, it's still something that we live by.

We learn from our mistakes. It's what often motivates us to do better.

Remove a memory, and we remove a part of ourselves.

What if a painful memory was connected to a wonderful memory? Remove that painful memory, and what was once wonderful... is no longer wonderful.

like anyone made mistake for sleeping with someone you never want to remember and delete a memory of it.

one day, she bumps into him that she used to be close with.

He said, "hey i haven't seen you for long time, how are you?!?"

she said," sorry i dont know you"

He said, "WHAT?! What are you talking?? We slept together many times during our college time!".

lol i don't think that would qualify for memory erasure procedure. I'm sure the medical committee would set up a strict guideline in order to have it and I'm sure it's only reserved for those with crippling & a very traumatic memory.

That reminds me of 50 First Dates.. Without the sleeping part. It feels terrible for the protagonist, watching it from a third person perspective.

I do support those stuff but I overheard it use for people who work for army or war... such as painful memories and flash back that end up hurt family.. so that one it can help in someway...

I would be afriad if any daughter marry a man who is army.. I would worry for mental health in their lifetime. Due my friend who in army and explain those stuff but friend is okay so far... but once a while freak my friend out if something similar as bomb sound...
