Yeah, sometimes when I'm having a shower a random thought pops up from my childhood. Brain: Remember that thing you did when you were a kid? You effing idiot.

Yeah, sometimes when I'm having a shower a random thought pops up from my childhood.
Brain: Remember that thing you did when you were a kid? You effing idiot.
Me: Thanks, brain. I was a child back then. We've gone over this multiple times. This is not constructive. I've a meeting in 4 hours I need to prepare for and there's nothing in that memory helpful to the current situation.
- kitsunesoba 4y agoThe time in which this most often occurs for me is while lying in bed trying to fall asleep and often includes blunders as recent as 3-5 years ago. While showering is probably a close second though.
- unshavedyak 4y agoHeh, i do that about everything. It's a really big flaw of mine. I have the same response as you, trying to mitigate the thoughts.. but to no real avail.
- TheAceOfHearts 4y agoHypothesis: could you have unprocessed childhood memories which contain useful information which your subconscious required you to acknowledge? I used to experience a lot of childhood memories until they were properly processed and understood. Maybe it's not random.
- ranting-moth 4y agoI think you might be right. I think they might be affecting me more than I'm willing to consciously admit.
