I used to when I was younger and it was involuntary exposure therapy. The world was supposed to end 100 different times when I was growing up and never did. 🤷♂️
Accept the uncertainty there is really nothing you can do it prevent a future event such as the end of the world It’s not your job to stop that
Google can be terrible with scarring us.
All kidding aside don’t look at the sun on 4/8/24 unless you take all the special precautions to safely view the solar eclipse.
What eclipse? Am I missing something?
@Moha🍃 There is going to be one in April 2024
There's one tomorrow in NA
@Wolfram What do they even do
It only affects some parts in the US from what I know, doesnt really concern the rest of the world or anyone tbh
@scutodragon The eclipse? Its where the moons rotation blocks out the sun temporarily. Just the shadow of the moon during the day. I remember seeing one as a kid. Might as well have been a big cloud 🤷♂️
@Wolfram I don't want to sound rude but why's people making a big deal out of it, isn't it just a normal occurance?
@Moha🍃 People are just being superstitious and creating conspiracy theories. Even if those were true, it's out of our control. So I focus on what is ☺️
@Wolfram Right? If the world wants to end then let it end lmao
@Moha🍃 There's a saying "live every day like it's your last". If you're scared, I'd just spend time with loved ones and show gratitude for my life and the joy they have brought me
@Moha🍃 Took me a while to process what bugged me about that sentence 😅 saying "let it" implies we have the power to stop it. It's purely out of our control. We can't stop it as much as we can let it. I know you probably didn't mean it that way but it was tickling my brain a little 😂
@Moha🍃 Some people will be able to see a total eclipse which isn't a normal occurrence. See it if you can :-).
To further add I think tomorrow there will be increased amount of minor fender benders indirectly from people not paying as much attention as they should with their driving . I had a not so important appointment to go to tomorrow instead I took it off the schedule, will do it on a different day instead.
That's a healthy heads up actually 👍
Look up Mind Shift on YouTube, he has a good vidéo debunking it
I went out with my partner today to spend the day together and try and do some ERP. the whole time I linked my arm and had my phone in my other hand. I would purposely move out the way for children or notify her so she could see I didn’t do anything. Please tell me I’m not the only one with this type of harm OCD. I’m really panicking and it’s making me feel sick. I had that feeling where my stomach drops and I’m scared of my thoughts
I’m stuck in a loop, I can’t stop avoiding the thoughts by watching tik tok, I’m paralyzed on the couch, I’m searching for clues everywhere that something bad is happening I don’t know how to go on like this anymore my fears are so strong so present they feel so real. Any mention of the future sends my whole body into panic. My arms go numb, I can’t keep living like this i feel like I’m going crazy
how has the end times and discussions affected your anxiety? for me its been very constant and scary, any advice would be greatly appreciated. (no negative replies please)
