True Synapses and False Memories
You can change episodic memories afterwards.
You remember location A as being dangerous and you come to location B. **At location B the neurons for remembering location A are triggered. Then you remember B as being dangerous as well. **
Erasing traumatic memory:
Activating the neurons for location B when you are in a good moment at the time (sex partner for example). So you don’t have bad memories of location B anymore.
neurons that fire together, wire together. A synapse that gets stronger is like a factory that increases its productivity: it recruits more neurotransmitters on the presynaptic side and more receptor molecules on the postsynaptic side. It also increases in size to accommodate them.

The highways of the brain improve the more we use them

myelin, similar to the adhesive tape that is wrapped around electrical wires to insulate them. The more an axon is used, the more layers this sheath develops, thus insulating it better and better, allowing it to transmit information at a higher speed.
