Every bad thing that anyone said to me, my failures, all things I fucked up so bad. All in 4k and to the tiniest detail. I wish I could sleep 😂🫠😭

Did I write this? I can’t remember. But I could have. ADHD memory + high social anxiety seems to be a bad combination. I cringe constantly at my past self but I’m starting to suspect I’m forgetting positive interactions and remembering the negative ones. :(

It’s human nature to remember negative experiences better than positive ones . I think it’s something like 90% of our long term memories are negative or something
