Is it possible to induce amnesia?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes, but: It is possible to induce amnesia due to the effects of certain drugs that dull the consciousness, and during an alcoholic blackout, but doing so is quite dangerous and is never specific. In other words, one cannot induce amnesia for a specific event permanently, but may be able to do so temporarily with a hypnotic suggestion. Otherwise, amnesia is random in its impact anterograde and retrograde
