Sometimes, our thoughts about past events can be distorted or exaggerated, leading to increased feelings of pain and distress. Practice challenging negative thoughts by asking yourself questions like "Is this thought really true?" or "Is there another way to think about this situation?" This can help you gain perspective and reduce the emotional intensity of painful memories.
