I think I get what you're saying bohogypsy though your terminology seems a bit extreme to me. Words like trigger and a need for resolution and healing have me thinking trauma. I've experienced negativity but, trauma? I can't say.

But why wouldn't I acknowledge remembering as an experience itself rather than thinking of random memories of negative events as negative themselves? The essence of remembering is seperate from the memory or interpretation. I can appreciate the act of remembering. With that perspective my brain and I can get along just fine.

Maybe that isn't at all what you were saying and perhaps it is nonsense but, I'm taking that away from it and it is a much more neutral perspective
