Image:Verywellmind Has it ever happened to you? Have you ever experienced it? When for the briefest of moments, you contemplate your own existence as a spectator, you appear out of ‘it’ for an instant and seem to have forgotten all that has brought you to where you are. A very slight trepidation brews and you wonder how on earth you will proceed, now that you seem to have forgotten how. And then suddenly, it all comes flooding back, like water from a dam that has given way. In seconds, everything is as it was, seconds more and you may never even remember what happened or how you just felt.
