Every impressions we get in our life experience, be that a happy one or the sad one, they will always be recorded in our brain. Even though these memories naturally will be sooner or later forgotten, they will never be completely ‘deleted’ from our mind. In fact, they all will be stored, deep down within us. An innovative research carried out by researchers of the Montreal University has successfully invented pills to forget sad memories.

The production of these pills are still under control for further observation. The research done on these pills however, has confirmed the effectiveness of them to lift off bad memories from the subconcious mind. Once these pills are finally ready for public distribution, which most likely to happen in the near future, traumatized victims of any accidents and soldiers can rely on those pills to relieve their mental issue.

As what was written on The Sun, those pills with the name of metyrapone can also reduce the stress and depression of those traumatized of other mental-related issues, such as broken-hearted people. The truth is, metyrapone has been around since a decade ago, but has never been available to public yet.

These pills were once used to cure hormonal disorder, but as an effect it had reduced the patient’s brain chemical substance assosiated with memorizing ability. Thus, a team consisting of some researchers from Monstrea University decided to do further research on the side effect of these pills.

The research resulted in the discovery of some new facts about the pills, one of which they can relieve ‘hurtful feelings’. This changes the previous theory of the humans mind that memories can never be changed once it is stored.
