extremely three major dereases in vividness: -approx. age 7 -approx. middle school -16/17 all correspond both with intense external stressors, and some developmental stuff. hard to say what caused what. didn't start getting the vividness back until 24 or so

thinking about it, the decrease in intensity and vividness also came along with a disturbing feeling that something was deeply wrong with me and I had to fix it I joke about peaking at age 7 but I think that was the last time I didn't have a trace of "something is wrong w/me"
