Your Childhood Memories Are Lies—How Your Brain Invented Your Past

Think you remember your childhood? You don't. Not the way you think. This neuroscience documentary reveals the disturbing truth: your brain doesn't record memories like a camera—it rewrites them every time you remember. Through three shocking real cases, we explore how people "remember" events they never experienced, how family stories become false personal memories, and how scientists can plant fake memories in your mind in just two weeks. From childhood amnesia to memory reconsolidation, this episode breaks down why your earliest memories are mostly reconstructed fiction. By the end, you'll question every story you've told about yourself. Because if your past is a lie your brain made up, then who are you really?
