7. Persistence<br />

(A thought you can’t get rid <strong>of</strong>)<br />

This failure <strong>of</strong> the memory system involves the unwanted recall <strong>of</strong><br />

information that is disturbing. The remembrance can range from a blunder<br />

on the job to a truly traumatic experience, and the persistent recall can<br />

lead to formation <strong>of</strong> phobias, post-traumatic stress disorder, and even<br />

suicide in especially disturbing and intrusive instances. (The body<br />

remembers)<br />

For example: The body physically reacts to a loud bang in the present in<br />

the same way it would have been on alert to explosions etc in the war<br />

zone.
