It's actually soothing to hear I am not the only one with this experience. Also, I just read on Twitter today (and the writer did source the study) that when we are in grief, we produce theta waves in the brain, which are normally only present during sleep. In other words, we sleepwalk. This, too, helps explain the amnesiac quality of deep stress. Maybe that is not what it was for you! But definitely was the situation for me.
Wait. You only fall for men named John? Not a Willie or a Sam?
I know. It’s so so weird
And there were two others!! One significant!! All Johns and Jons!!!
I went to a high school reunion, where a male classmate talked about a dance. We went together, and I have no memory of it.
