Our beloved daughter received care for depression that created horrid false memories and harmed her mental health . She is a victim like many tens of thousands of others. This care tragically hurt her, her siblings, parents and extended family. Her children are now isolated from cousins, uncles, aunts, grandparents and great grandparents. True friends who care about her have been "cutoff".
The impact of "Regression Therapy" is summarized in the chart and the table.
State collected data, insurance studies, lawsuit payouts and asset seizures have largely ended the use of regression therapies by insured therapists and established institutions since the 1990's. Courtrooms require scientific validation and have ceased allowing the false information generated by "recovered memory therapies." "Do It Yourself Therapy" books and well meaning friends are the usual perpetrators of the now fully discredited "recovered memory" techniques.

WARNING:
If you are seeking help for personal struggles and a therapist, counselor or friend says that "recovering childhood memories can help you get better" then IMMEDIATELY get up from your chair (or off the couch), run to the door, open it and flee. Hundreds of thousands have lost families, years of productive living and squandered immense wealth with tragedy inducing therapy that produces horrid false memories, splinters families, isolates the client and is documented to cause decline in mental health.

This is an effort to Break the Cycle of Shame
and Save Others from Similar Tragedy!
Pseudo memories initially seem very real (especially if medicated or entranced). Those who claim "repressed memories" will typically isolate themselves from those who truly know the accused and speak the truth. When (and if) the accuser eventually realizes falsehoods were articulated isolation may continue out of shame. Accused innocents may hide the embarrassing accusations in order to protect their reputation or reconnect. Counselors separate from clients who no longer are dependent and seek to avoid lawsuit by claiming neutrality. So then a "therapy" that nurtures the creation of falsehoods that are related as truth is empowered, through ignorance, to repeat the tragic cycle that destroys more innocent lives and families.
This site contains true stories of brave people including those misled by "do it yourself therapy books", accusers duped by bad therapy, innocents who endured horrid false accusations (many innocents lose careers, are imprisoned or impaled by grief); and those who watched in horror as the damage was done to lives and families.
This website is a small effort to light the darkness with truth.
=========================================
Those untrained in the psychological sciences often misunderstand or are misinformed about what is now common knowledge among professionals that practice ethical competent counseling.
Needlessly fractured families along with innocent people who are defamed and even imprisoned only add to the evidence of how destructive this therapy is.

RESEARCH SUMMARY
Verifiable "repressed memories" have been sought without success for decades by experimental psychologists, professional researchers, fully trained therapists, dedicated law enforcement investigators and expert lawyers. Psychological researchers have never been able to obtain a replicated, validated or verified "repressed memory" since being speculated a century ago. There are many extensively researched books as well as quality videos and documentaries about the creation and impact of these pseudo memories. Renowned experts in memory conclude that "repressed memory" is actually a cultural myth because it persists as a belief in spite of the overwhelming scientific evidence to the contrary.
