Can someone explain false memory to me? How is it possible for a false memory to occur? How does it happen? What is the “science” behind it? Like what is actually happening in our brains that causes us to remember things differently and fabricate details?

Has false memory OCD affected you so badly that you feel that a lot of your memories period are unclear, vague, fuzzy and can’t recall correctly?

can a false memory feel very very very real? because i literally don’t know if something happened or not. absolutely no clue but it feels so real

Can a false memory be based on a real event? Like the false memory is based on something that did happen (there is a time/place/people) but you’re not sure if the action in the memory is real? For example, I’ve been dealing with a false memory and it’s based on the time I went on a vacation with my family and the false memory has a time and place, it doesn’t change and it has a specific action and idk…it just feels like it did happen…especially since it’s based on something that DID happen…idk how to explain it :( I hope it is understandable. Anyways…I hope you guys are having a great day!
