Third Person Pov In Memories

[SubparTony]

So does anyone else gets that?
When I want to remember some situations or events, instead of remembering what happened from my point of view, I watch myself from a different angle, as if it's a scene from a movie or something.

It is sort of weird, because instead of remembering the facts as they are, sometimes I miss some details like clothes I or the others are wearing, objects in different positions. I guess that's some mistakes my mind makes while processing the whole event and taking from a different angle.

When I searched about it some months ago, I read that some people claim it's because we are affected from cinema. Which sounds logical. As far as I can remember, I always had this kind of memories but I only realized some years ago.

So Newgrounds, do you have these third person memories, or am I a lunatic?

I saw a trillion trillion third person images of myself in real time the first time I tried Salvia.

Fuck Salvia.

I always remember it from a first person view.

However you aren't a lunatic, nor have I ever heard of this...

You're unique, if you will.

Most of my dreams have that sort of out of body experience. Pretty scary, because I'm usually trying to run away or hide from something!

Sally D is one CRAZY girl man.

Ironically, one of the First psychoactives I tried, yet the freakiest of them all.

Tried it about a dozen times, leaves and extract, and I'll never do it again.

The last time I did it a female entity reached out to me from some other plane and I said "NOPE!" and INSTANTLY turned off the trip, which is amazing because of how freaking far out of your normal physical experience it takes you.

It happens to me too. I see the setting, foreground, background and then everyone involved, even myself, and then it will transition from my POV to third person back and forth.

I do...but whenever I become aware of the fact, I have to check to make sure thats not incredibly narcissistic.

Its like your imagination exercising out, "and I must've looked like THIS at that point..." ...kinda like how you can catch yourself glancing at a mirror or a reflective surface nearby? Boom. Now your mind has something to base those memories off of.

But...I could see it totally justified in how it can fill the gaps to information you couldn't have seen otherwise.

For example, in my first motorcycle accident, I crawled back to my sideways bike, and one of the first people on the scene was really passionate about wanting to stabilize my neck. I still had my full-face helmet on, I was upright, I was talking...I was shook up, but I wanted to walk and stand, but she like...STRANGLED the back of my neck, tightly holding it in place...and I remember thinking that was ridiculous, and that was fine, but I also remember the scene in a third person view...of me sitting on the concrete median of the street, next to my bike, some people standing around me, and her behind me. I never did get a good look at her, but I remember the pattern on her dress. It was floral. I remember what I looked like...thats the imagery that stuck, all to the orange glow of the streetlight at night.

I've had it lots of times, most of the time during dreams I remember vividly.
