MODERATORS
Few days ago over an imaginary situation lasting 8 hours. I did write it all down, and I still have it saved, but it's pretty weird.
I wrote this down shortly after and it's just been residing in a note-taking app. Perhaps you could consider it NSFW since it discusses death in not the best manner.
I'll just plop it here into a spoiler if you want to read it:
Fucked up text
So, we had a discussion on 1st aid also involving CPR. Apparently mouth-to-mouth is also required where I live.
I tried to imagine such a situation, and over the course of around 8 hours spiralled into worse and worse thoughts as I kept overthinking every aspect of it more and more.
I'll try to just lay them into separate points:
I don't know how I'd deal with this in reality. Of course I wouldn't have 8 hours to overthink everything.
Of course, this is just imagination with lots of overthinking, but I often spiral into thoughts like this. It feels like I am internally fighting myself about what's right and what isn't. Twice I got into such thoughts so much I couldn't physically stand until I calmed down at least a bit.
Sup.
I am an awful person.
Hey I have literally no advice, but as someone who similarly spirals over hypothetical anxieties, I don't think you're an awful person. I can see how a conversation about something high stakes like CPR could trigger that.
Have you tried cbd
Does delta 8 count?

Nope.
