Patient:
- I don’t know if I’ll ever overcome this fear. Can
you tell me again about this new memory therapy
you want to try?
Psychologist:
- Well, I’m going to show you a series of pictures of
the thing you’re afraid of at 10-minute intervals.
Patient:
- ----
Psychologist:
- Time is crucial to disrupting the brain’s ability to
remember your fear. If we increase the time
intervals between the pictures, your brain has
more time to remember, and that’s exactly what
we don’t want.
