Comment on Explaining your traumatic past IRL feels so underwhelming compared to when a character in a movie or tv scene revealing their traumatic childhood.

Fiction also usually includes a flashback to see how horrific it was, and then it cuts back to the person telling the story, as though they just finished describing everything that happened. In reality, nobody can ever describe a scene in such detail, and while you are reliving the moment, everyone else just hears you say what happened.
