Flashbulb memory
Storyboard Text
- Three years ago.
- Nooo, she can’t die she is the only reason I am still alive! My grandmother, please don’t leave me!
- Present day (3 years after her death)
- I've been better.
- How have you been since your grandmothers death?
- I'm so sorry for crying, but I can't think about her without bawling my eyes out.
- I'm so sorry for bringing it up, let's go on a walk to calm you down.
- I just keep replaying the moment I found out in my head, again and again; and it hurts the same way every single time.
- What do you mean?
- I can't really explain it, it's like a memory that I vividly remember, I remember what I was wearing, what was around me, even though I wasn't even focused on that.
- It wasn't a vague memory at all, I can still feel the pain I felt at that moment. I even remember wearing my favorite black shirt and I remember the blue curtains that were around me.
- I remember learning about something like this in my psychology class, with my favorite teacher Ms. Karina.
- Wow, I've never heard of anything like that.
- It is referred to as a "flashbulb memory". They are especially common with traumatic events. They are personal memories formed when something shocking or upsetting is heard. The event is then vividly remembered.
- Yeah it is time to head home, It's night time and thank you so much, so do I.
- Yeah, it is one of the most interesting theories in psychology. I hope you heal from this, and I'l drop you home.
