The NFL clip of previous football plays gave me a better perspective. Seems ppl with PTSD have an innate ability to catastrophosize. We use the terms triggers and flashbacks, as all inclusive of what those things are. Yet it isn't so. That's "just" my feelings, which are now changing about it. Not all triggers are bad. Not all flashbacks are bad. Well, not IRL for most ppl. The bad stuff doesn't have a lock on the market of terms.

Somehow viewing it that way takes some of the power out of them. Maybe it will help my brain file the bad stuff too? (Or, as you said KD, "cross over.")
