I'm curious. Everyday, I have flashbacks to insignificant moments of angst or brief danger or anger or ... some other stress in my life. I've never counted but it must be 10 to 20 times a day. Fleeting moments of "argh" or "OMG" as "micro" flashbacks play. Do you all get this?
What strikes me as odd is that I'm happy, I'm content, I don't regret anything and yet I have this constant beat of "OMG, that could have happened" when it didn't happen or when what happened was so insignificant that I struggle to understand why it is coming up 30 years later.
Now, occassionally, for no obvious reason that I can find, I will also go into a very dark space ... I've never been able to make sense of it, there's no rationality to it. But oddly, I've noted that when I come out, I tend to be at my most "creative" or at least I perceive that.
