From the author: Perinatal psychology. Our life experience is characterized by continuity and information about it is stored in the neural structures of the brain. And as has already been proven by recent scientific research, the storage of life experience begins from the perinatal period and is recorded using implicit memory processes (memory without awareness of the subject of memorization or unconscious memory, or passive memory) in the body-psychic system of the fetus. For implicit memory, all areas of the brain are used and its trace is more powerful compared to the trace of explicit (conscious, active) memory, although it is more vulnerable. It turned out that implicit memory is sensitive to a change in modality, especially when moving from visual to auditory (which is biologically justified, since the fetus hears, feels and senses its mother with every cell, but does not have the ability to see her). The phenomenon of implicit memory has been studied and in patients under anesthesia, it manifests itself in what they hear and react emotionally to words and sounds spoken in the operating room. Since hearing is the last sense suppressed by anesthesia, it plays an important role in implicit memory, and intraoperative events or conversations can affect the patient's well-being in the postoperative period, positively or negatively. Likewise, the implicit memory of the perinatal period of a person’s life contains the entire experience of intrauterine life, influencing the course of human development, having serious and long-term consequences. It’s good that if the intrauterine experience is positive and favorable, you don’t have to worry about the consequences. What if the fetus has had a traumatic experience? Since the psyche of the fetus is formed through interaction with the environment, the trauma experienced by it can affect the individual’s worldview and his entire future life. And the traumatic experience of intrauterine life is more destructive in terms of influence than subsequent experience, because The MOTHER herself is considered the traumatic aggressor, having insufficiently protected herself and her child from harmful influences. In the future, as a person grows up and accumulates life experience, he or she may be subject to the regular invasion of obsessive implicit images of past horrors, which attract new somewhat similar traumatic events that reinforce the existing perception of the world and life. The most common traumas of the perinatal period: - doubt or unwillingness of both parents or one of them to give birth to a child; - fear and anxiety of the mother about pregnancy; - fear or shock of the mother for any reason; - aggression, violence (screaming, fighting, anger, insults ...) addressed to a pregnant woman; - intention to have an abortion, thoughts and conversations about it; - prematurity and postmaturity; - chemical, alcohol, tobacco “poisoning” of the fetus... Fortunately, today there is a lot of evidence not only of brain plasticity, but also the ability of the cerebral cortex to restructure, on which modern psychological techniques are based, thanks to which we can change the perception of unbearable and frightening events!
