Sorry for the negative statement... This topic is very important to me for many reasons, including being the receiving end of false accusations by women with bipolar disorder. I’ve been researching and lecturing at conferences on this topic for many years. Bad therapists really get under my skin and I have cost several of them their careers.

Memory research is the focus of my neuroscience research and I have a degree in psychology. I’m retired but occasionally work as a forensic litigation consultant

Here is an excellent Ted Talk by Elizabeth Loftus. The leading expert on “conflabulated” memory.

Saving it for later. I agree with you, seen evidence of the power of false memory myself. Also have seen and experienced some repressed memory returning but the fact that such a thing occurs doesn’t negate that false memories occur.

This woman has low credibility but some drunken romp may have happened. Seriously, I’ve been groped scarier than her incident at Disneyland. Gee whiz.
