@kdpennin Thanks for sharing. My worst time for rehashing past decision is duuring the night when I cannot sleep... and not only why I did or said things is one side of the coin; the other side is why did that person say or so those things to me and I didnt speak up! I know we cannot go back even one minute in time.. but I suppose it is some form/level of PTSD

Yes, I imagine most of us have episodes of what my husband and I call "Life Review". It is such a pain in the neck! Such wasted effort when usually there is not a thing to be done about it. We have developed a habit of laughing about it now. Laughter and compassion are the best tools I have when I it comes up.
I also find help in a regular mindfulness meditation practice.
