Have you guys ever experienced something so horrible or dramatic that you created all types of scenarios in your head as to why it happened. Maybe pinning it on God or Destiny when in reality......it was simply a mistake and nothing more

Well I don't particularly believe in an anthropomorphic deity or look for any great cosmic reason behind anything to begin with..it's just not how my brain works. I have tortured myself over "What ifs" many times, sometimes just the smallest tiniest change completely flips around the outcome of whatever event I'm pondering.
And ultimately I come to the conclusion that it is useless to preoccupy myself with thoughts of what could have happened if I had just done -insert mundane choice here- instead....it's just needless self torture that will not change anything and I just try to learn from it and move on with my life.
so, to answer your question, yes.

Sometimes, but lately I try to focus on how to make my situation better rather then dwell. Sometimes, it's hard as hell to do, though

its very easy to get trapped with your thoughts....trying to rewrite memorys will never work but we have to move passed somehow!!!! as pirate-blues said alot of thought gets caught up in negative thinking...keep telling yourself I'm broke..no money no bla bla blah...wish this happened..what if that happened type thing....and you'll be a bag of misery.
If ya realise your short money for some sort of bill,or that you said or did the wrong thing at the wrong time, or something unexpected happens beyond your control then fuck it(in a broad sense)!!!!! if ya know you dont have to completely commit to that thought until the day it happens or cant change what has happened, or that there's nothing physically or mentally you can do until said day,..then just say fuck it!!!...I'll deal with it when I have to...
sooooo.. thinking every scenario that could have happened is head-melting and could last forever until you realise that you cant change an atom of what happened in the past.....so i suppose its like brain training to rewire your focus on more positive things in your life!!!
