I feel an urge I can't control — Quick Reset
This is a short interruption pass. The goal is not to solve everything right now. The goal is to break the loop enough to regain choice.
Work through
- Name the exact loop in one sentence.
- Notice what triggered it.
- Interrupt it with one clear physical action right now.
- Say out loud what you are choosing instead for the next 10 minutes.
Next path
You do not need to solve everything in one pass. Choose the next path that feels closest to what is still active.
Pause here if you feel unsafe
If you feel unsafe, may harm yourself or someone else, or are in immediate danger, call emergency services right away or contact a crisis line in your area.
