"Are there ways to erase situations or events from our memory that we don't want to remember?"

Canadians claim to have found a way to erase painful memories from the mind, which can help overcome post-traumatic stress. However, there is still no widely available method that can completely erase memory fragments. There are many psychological and therapeutic techniques, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, and hypnotherapy, that can help process and process painful memories, but they do not completely remove them. In any case, consultation with a qualified therapist or specialist is always recommended.

Scientists are still researching this issue and there is no definitive answer to this question yet. However, there are some techniques that can help weaken or recover certain memories. One method is dissociative reversal therapy, which involves reliving specific traumatic memories but in a way that helps reduce the negative emotions associated with them. Another technique is EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), which uses eye movements, sounds, or touch to reduce the negative effects of traumatic memories. Relaxation techniques such as meditation or breathing techniques can also be helpful in reducing stress and negative emotions associated with those memories. However, the process of "erasing" memories in the literal sense is still a subject of research, and there is no effective method yet to remove or eliminate specific memories from our minds. It is also important to remember that memory is an integral part of our experience and identity, so attempting to completely erase memories may have unpredictable consequences.

I don't know and I haven't heard of any scientifically confirmed method that would allow erasing situations or events from human memory. I have only seen something like that in movies or TV series, for example in the series "The Blacklist". Maybe there is some grain of truth in it and maybe the intelligence agencies of large countries are working on something like that, but it is strictly confidential and inaccessible to ordinary people, if such work is being done at all.

Currently, there is only one widely known method of forgetting, or rather, of fading them in memory, and that is... time. However, it does not completely erase the event or situation from memory.

There are ways for our memory to be selective, but it is not good for development. It is good to remember everything, but accept those "incompatible" things so that our brain can let them go. Subconsciousness returns to unresolved situations, i.e., those not accepted by us.

Trauma can both remove and show memories in the form of flashbacks.

No healthy, humanitarian method except for accidents or brain surgery can guarantee memory loss.

First and foremost, such an approach is the biggest mistake one can make. The essence is to get rid of the emotional reactions associated with such an event. Escaping from these reactions is somewhat automatically built into our mind as one of the survival elements, and in psychology, it is called repression, but it is not a solution to the problem. Repressed memory of emotions associated with the event does not free our subconscious from purely biological reactions that happen in the background and usually initially without symptoms. These mechanisms are discussed in a relatively new and yet suppressed field of psychobiology. Coming back to the question, the correct approach is to fully acknowledge all possible negative feelings associated with the event, and despite some emotional pain, go through the process of letting go of these emotions, so that (at the beginning) only the pain remains as a phenomenon almost indifferent, but without perceiving it as suffering. There are plenty of techniques that can be applied, and it depends on us which one is understandable and comfortable. But one thing is crucial: we have to implement the process ourselves. No therapist, guru, super method, pill, etc., will do it for us - even if the beginnings are difficult, we have to go through it. Of course, we can seek help from others as a form of guidance. Currently, depressive states are common as a result of a "wrong" approach to experienced events/trauma, and only recently has Gabor Maté correctly explained the phenomenon of depression with an approach well-known in psychobiology. Interestingly, even the ancient Kahuna in Hawaii used such an approach (consistent with psychobiology) with good results.

There are no effective ways to erase memories from one's memory in a manner similar to what we often see in science fiction movies. Memory is a complex neurological process, and forgetting can be a natural consequence of the passage of time or changes in our brain. However, we do not have full control over what is remembered or forgotten.

However, there are methods that can help in dealing with unwanted memories or traumatic experiences, such as psychological therapy, meditation, or relaxation techniques. It is worth consulting with a professional if you have difficulties with certain memories or experiences that negatively impact your life.

Replacing it with the positives of life

I think that complete eradication of a specific memory is possible, but only in serious cases such as a car accident or an illness. In those situations, a person can forget half of their life.
However, as for the method of erasing memories because "I want it," it is impossible. I believe that even if such a method existed, many people would want to use it, and it would already be widely known in the media. :)

They don't exist. We can only change our approach to them. Become an observer

and observe the emotions accompanying them without judging them.

Wow good question I don't think we can be able to do that, our minds can store a million things, which later on they will come back as a picture or like a voice automatically should we have a similar even that looks like the stored event. Some comes back as dreams, idea, etc
