Is there anything to back up these ideas. Admittedly, I haven't read the article and am not familiar with the science.
That said, these aren't things that can be figured out based on gut feeling or how something "seems". Your body doesn't remember anything, what are you talking about?
There's no reason to think that it would be impossible to create a pill to mitigate some trauma. This seems like a dangerous obsession with "therapy", that our modern society seems to have. "Taking pill bad. Must work through"
It's been observed for a long time that some people handle trauma way better than others. Who says we can't get to a place where everyone can have that, or that we can never find medicine that helps?

- sneak 4y agoThis is true, but only because the brain is a part of the body. The brain remembers things.
- mplewis 4y agoThat neglects all the other ecosystems in your body that lead you to behave the way you do. Have you ever been hangry? How about the experience of chronic intestinal irritation worsening your depression? How do you feel in your head when you can’t stop your heart from racing after a stressful day of work? Those are all examples of the inverse.
