Did You Know!
Your Memory Rewrites Itself Each Time You Recall It
Every time you remember something, your brain reconstructs the memory — it’s not like replaying a video. This means your memories can change over time, incorporating new emotions, biases, or even false details.
It’s called memory reconsolidation, and it’s one reason eyewitness testimony is so unreliable.
Mind-bending fact: The more often you recall a memory, the less accurate it might become.
