I don't know about dappled, but I have that. I have a lot of difficulty controlling what I think about, actually. Sometimes, when I try to think about other things, it gets worse. The thoughts I'm trying to avoid force their way in.
When I was in about third grade, it started to really bother me how small we are, how short a time we live, and how we spend far, far more time being dead than we spend living. It was a big contributor to my childhood depression. It still bothers me sometimes, but I'm usually much more ok with it now. I do have other intrusive thoughts, though. The fact that I'm more ok with it is partially the product of a good bit of therapy.
Is it normal the vastness of the universe freaks me out?
