Or find that memories are open to a bit of persuasion?
I often have moments where I realise “oh that must have been a dream” (my dreams can be both vivid and dull)
If someone disagrees with my memory of a past event, their version starts to over write mine, even if I’ve got proof.
And recently I lost a dead friend and I find myself looking for his face in every man of a similar build and it struck me that if I did see him, I think my mind would effortlessly shrug off the shock and grief of the last few weeks as “must have been a bad dream”.
I was watching a Sandra Bullock movie where she learns her dh is dead, and the next morning wakes up to him showering in the en-suite and it got me thinking about whether her reactions (complete certainty of her experiences and a fear of going mad) was an NT thing, or just Hollywood unrealism?
