I’d like to add that this also sometimes goes along with either being in denial of having experienced trauma or convincing oneself that the experience “was not that bad after all”.

Been there, done that. To the shock of the people who witnessed said situations, who couldn't believe I dismiss them. I just can't remember being that bad.
Definitely true. I realized talking to my therapist that I was afraid I would be chastised for talking about my trauma or abuse.
