Is there any way of curing Psychological/emotional trauma?
I know Psychological trauma isn't a disease, but isn't there a way to get rid of it for good?

Besides therapy and that kinda stuff

Why can't neurologists find a way to remove negative/traumatic memories from the brain permanently? I mean theres Somatic experiencing,Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, and types of therapy but no cure? Do you think there would ever be?

I heard of an organization (Narsad) that is using neurology to try to cure certain mental disorders, but those are caused by chemical imbalances.

They have electro shock therapy that rids of it temporarily. Why can't they find something to rid of it permanently? Do you think it will ever be possible? or get rid of the disorders/issues it causes? I mean science has gone so far.

I know trauma is a human process, usually caused by people and relationships. And its resolution comes through human relationships and processes, but isn't it possible to rid of it since its in the brain? I mean the brain is the one holding the trauma.


Another question: Is it possible to restart the brain?
