Is it possible to completely forget something you experienced?
Well, it depends on who you ask. Pick a side and welcome to the memory wars.
One side believes it is possible. There are documented cases of victims of traumatic events who forget for years until one day when they begin to remember.
The other side believes that this is not a real thing. You cannot just forget a memory and then suddenly remember it.
The stakes are high for the memory wars. And the stakes are even higher for the False Memory Syndrome Foundation.
FMSF is on the side that denies repressed memories. For decades, FMSF has denied victims of all ages who have remembered experiences of CSA and torture, including Mary Knight. This is her story.
