"Writing in the journal Psychological Medicine, the team suggest that repressed memories are not a neurological reality, but a cultural invention ..."

This sounds a lot like that the "False Memory" group that tries to invalidate claims of abuse, etc.

Thank you for sharing this information. This "scientific" report is just another cover up and so convenient when people are becoming aware of mind control experiments, child abuse, prisoner abuse, satanism, etc. How interesting to notice that in his time Freud himself did not dare face the reprobation of society by talking about this issue. Here is a passage from an article (http://www.thisisawar.com/AuthorsAlice.htm)outlining some of the core thoughts of the renowned anti-mainstream psychologist Alice Miller concerning Freud and social pressures leading him to re-interpret his original theories. Who are behind these reinterpretations?

Miller's view of the child became more and more opposed to that of traditional Freudian theory. Miller at first dedicated Thou Shalt Not Be Aware (http://www.alice-miller.com/books_en.php?page=3) to Freud on the one hundred twenty-fifth anniversary of his birth. "His discoveries of the survival of childhood experiences in the adult unconscious and the phenomena of repression have influenced my life and way of thinking," she says. "But I came to different conclusions than Freud when I could no longer deny what I learned from my patients about the repression of child abuse."

Today Miller has departed from the traditional analytic approach to treatment and from Freudian theory. Early in his work Freud believed that the root of neurosis was actual trauma, often violent and sexual in nature, that had been repressed in childhood. Later he altered his view, deciding that the child is by no means innocent but is born with drives that are sexual and destructive in nature.

Why has Freud's Oedipus complex lasted so long? Miller asks. "Because in the Freudian view the parents, not the child, are innocent. The Freudian view fits society; it overlooks in Oedipus the abused child and sees him with incestuous wishes that lead to his killing his father, marrying his mother, and ultimately blinding himself."

Traditional analysis, says Miller, duplicates the parent-child relationship. with the conventional analyst in the position of power. But there is hope in therapy if the therapist is a true advocate of the patient. Respect for the child within the patient and his discovery of his real history must play a role in the treatment process. The child undergoes a long inner struggle "between the fear of losing the person he loves if he remains true to himself, and panic at the prospect of losing himself if he has to deny who he is. A child cannot resolve a conflict of this nature and is forced to conform because he cannot survive by himself. Therapy should not repeat this condition."

I think Alice Miller's work is critical for our times, and have mentioned her in another post (http://www.davidicke.com/forum/showpost.php?p=3939&postcount=31) on depression.

All the best.
