Is suffering you forgot about still suffering?

Yes

What these people do still affects a person's mind and emotions
And it always bites them in the ass harder later on. So by now their twingy little asses should have realized they're fucked

"suffering" is no physical entity, but an arbitrary concept that only exists in our minds.

so: no. if you don't _know_ you suffer, then - by definition - you don't suffer.

@tosensei neurologically speaking the brain remembers everything
That's how implicit memory works
It's basically a nervous echo of previously confirming nervous circuits

Same with learning
So yes unremembered suffering can be recovered from by does affect a person

@AvatarOfKaine thing is: "suffering" is not a neurological term, but a philosophical one.

@tosensei pain distress stress sadness rejection abandonment isolation trauma all are.collectively they form suffering. You must drive your wife crazy lol
