PHL232H1 Lecture Notes - Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
Document Summary
Two people, ben & rachel switch bodies. Ben suffers from ptsd & rachel suffers from anxiety. Ben thinks he can get rid of his ptsd if he switches into red-body. Rachel thinks she can get rid of her anxiety if she switches into blue-body. So ben gets rid of his ptsd but receives anxiety and his memory is of having anxiety. If bodily continuity is a true swap, your memories would get transferred into someone else. You are under my power: tomorrow, you will be tortured. I am scared that i will be tortured: right before the torture, your memory of being told about the torture will be wiped torture will be a surprise, right before the torture, all your memories will be wiped. You re going to make me amnesiac too and then torture me: you ll be given a whole new set of memories, those of another person that s now living.
