Unless one has learned to properly indulge in activities that cause repression of memories they will largely be unable to function in what could be considered a normal day-to-day manner.

This entry overviews a factual set of Events that illustrate the need for, and ways to achive, healthy memory repression.

it seems to be a reasonable enough review, but I think it needs a different title. Anyone actually looking for information on repressed memories and the mechanics behind it would find this and be disappointed.

do keep up the good work though.

What Xyroth said.

I have nothing to say against the entry, but I'd hate to think that a researcher wanting to do a serious entry on memory repression, its causes, the effects on people with repressed memories and the dangers inherent in walking around with repressed memories would give it a pass after seeing your title.

Well, As it seems to me this is more of a thing to show shazz for a post article then an edited guide entry.

I won't even start with the third person requirement,as this one may slip through but it isn't completely factual nor informative. And I may be wrong about it as it was also *VERRY* hard for me to read and understand fully (as one to whom english is a second language).

CC, Please try reading the house rules.
and others, please reead the entry and tell me if I'm just wrong.

Yours,

smiley - blush I meant writing guidelines instead of house rules - I'm quite tired and I'm sorry enough to provide a link:

Hiya!

I've got a lecture intriguingly titled 'Consciousness', next week, so I'll give comments on the entry in due course...

I may take some time in commenting, as currently I am under Health and Safety regulation breaking stress (as is the rest of my year - if you are in London and spot 300 sleep-drained panicky medics around S. Ken or Charing Cross Hospital, that will be me and my year), due to some incredibly important exams coming up in 2 weeks time... give me a bit of time to look at this smiley - smiley I will comment, but not just yet...

Stay smiley - cool,
WD

Maybe the title could be changed to "Memory Repression - A Personal Experience" or something, or put in the post, like has already been suggested.

I claim this thread for AGG/GAG! smiley - winkeye

Well, no, but I would like to think about featuring it. It's a shame you can't submit entries which are already submitted elsewhere... smiley - erm

I'll let people know, anyway.
