Why does any bad accident, incident or opportunity bother you for years? Because the bad and scary memories associated with it are hidden in one part of your brain. Which come out in between, which causes your mental and physical health deteriorate. Such a situation is usually caused by the Post Tramatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
Indeed, the hippocampus of the brain is the region where memories are formed. But till now no one knew in which part of the brain is stored. Why do they come out again and again at the appropriate and unfair time. Recently scientists at the University of California, USA conducted a study, in which they discovered where bad memories are hidden in the brain.
You will be surprised to know that these bad memories build a house in a very important part of our brain. All these bad memories get entangled and make a trap. If one comes out, the rest also start coming out one by one. Scientists have also tried to find out how they can be treated. He took a rat, whose nerve cells of the brain were engineered. So that his response can be seen in the event of fear or pain.
Inspecting the location of the brain where this particular nerve is active. After this, he was given electric shocks. Then he was released. A month later, when the rat was brought back to the same place, he stood stable like the idol. His brain became active. His engineered nerve cell became active. They were surprised when scientists took several samples of the rat’s brain. These scary memories are hidden in the part of the brain from where you make a decision.
Neuroscientist Jun-Hyong Cho says that the part of the brain that decides is called a pre-flower cortex (PFC). That is, when you reach the place where you had some kind of pain. Or if you have a scary remember, then scary memories start coming out from inside your brain. You start having a tromatic stress. Due to fear, the circuit of the brain’s neurons starts deteriorating.
Jun-Hyong Cho said that other scary memories like electric shock may also be hidden in the pre-flowing cortex of the human brain. Whenever a person passes through such an event or place, his old scary memories come to the fore. But its disadvantage is that this causes the circuit of pre-flowing memory to deteriorate. Due to this, you are unable to remember other good events even if you want to. You start forgetting them.
About 6 per cent of the US population is a victim of the post -tractic stress disorder (PTSD). This study will reveal how to raise different people from their fear and old bad memories. Also, how to treat diseases like PTSD. The study has recently been published in Nature Neuroscience.
