It is a real thing but it is not an excuse for behavior......... Dissociative amnesia occurs when the person has been through a trauma.... the mind wipes it away because it's too hard to deal with. Children who are sexually abused frequently have dissociative amnesia of the abuse... people in car accidents often can not remember the accident.....
It has no affect on behavior and would not make someone do something bad.
Dissociative amnesia is often accompanied by other dissociative symptoms like dissociation (distancing ones self from reality during stress), depresonalization, etc... that can affect all areas of someones life.Dissociative Amnesia, real or excuse for bad behavior?
sounds like a modern day excuse for not caring
