To other adults on the spectrum, I just wondered whether you have this too. When you see or hear less than pleasant things, especially some that are just too harrowing (such as a news article I read about a woman struggling with labour in a South American country and the medical attendant was pulling the baby out by it's head and pulled so hard that the baby's head was ripped off it's body and the mother heard an awful cracking sound and the other medical attendant yelling "what have you done!" in horror). I get awful feelings when I remember such things, like a sort of PTSD and I can't forget what I have seen or heard, even after the passage of time. It's like you can't unsee what you've seen, unhear what you've heard or unread what you've read and you wish you'd never been exposed to it in the first place because every so often you recall it and the feelings you had before over it resurface.
I did read somewhere that we are more prone to PTSD and I think this is a sort of type of that, just wondered what others's thoughts are.
