    I don’t know if it’s physically possible, but I sometimes think what if my office chair breaks and the hydraulic piston shoots through the seat and impales my colon.

    Real Final Destination shit right there.

      Possible trigger warning…

      I read an article a few years ago about this happening in China. There were graphic photos from the ER which I won’t discuss here, but If I remember correctly it was a teenager and he actually died because it ruptured an artery in his colon or something like that. Ever since then I’ve always been ok with spending a little more money for a quality chair. Especially if it’s something you’re going to use every day.

    Showering with the lights off. And having my teeth fallen. I suffer from cavities, I don’t even know why I have so many, I brush my teeth twice to thrice a day. :( so I’m seriously scared of ending toothless at some point.

      Floss. I have some floss picks near my bed, computer and bathroom. I just idly use the floss picks a couple times throughout the day, usually watching YouTube or something and have only gotten 1 cavity despite going through really bad depression and poor dental hygiene.

        I use floss, too. :( .every morning and night. I still don’t know the reason for it. A dentist told me it was just a genetic thing and I should be way more careful than others. Another dentist told me it could probably be anemia. But I’ve read that bulimia causes cavities (I used to be bulimic for a long period)

          Your fear is very rational then haha. It also helps to consciously scrape the front and rear tooth with the floss. Much easier to do with floss picks.

          Other than that you can look into some blood work for that anemia and any other anomalies. My condolences man, that sounds so fuckin tough.
