New med coming out

[Cammy]

Agreeing with Freya on this one...the trauma memories are not good, but take them away and what's left is not who I am. Although they are painful and have caused me to become multiple, I believe that I am more sensitive to other's pain and suffering because of my own trauma memories. No, I would not want to have my mind erased in this manner. Having said that, there may be extreme cases where the trauma memory is SO severe that the person is in a continual state of suicidal ideation and behaviour. This has happened, and in some instances they have used shock therapy to try and make the trauma memories become 'fuzzier' with the hope that lessening their clarity will calm the individual down a bit - at least enough to try and stop the attempts at self-destruction. I think that there may well be call for these drugs in extreme cases, but like everything, drug companies need to make money on their product and soon would be trying to encourage the use of this med for everyday disappointments. I can see the ads now: "Upset that you didn't get to go to prom with the date of your dreams? Don't suffer another moment, take MemoryWipe and wipe your tears away."
