The production of fabricated or distorted memories without the conscious intention to deceive, often filling gaps in memory.
From Latin 'confabulari' meaning 'to talk together,' from 'con-' (together) + 'fabulari' (to talk, tell stories).
Confabulation is when your brain fills in memory gaps with made-up details — and you honestly believe they're real!
