I'm not sure if this is the right forum but...
My truck had mechanical problems recently. Broke down. I use my truck for work so it was serious but I think I became obsessed with it. There was nothing much else I could do but if there had been anything else I don't think I could have done it because all my thoughts were focused on repairing the truck or just giving up. It was a difficult repair and I gave up a couple of times and pretty much became shut off. The last time I became very depressed and my anxiety became worse than it has in a long time. I slept for two days and only ate twice. I couldn't think straight and actually became suicidal. The cats got fed of course but I couldn't function at all... not even a even shower. I'm wondering if it was really obsession or just back and forth between total desperation and surrender. Fortunately I was able to regroup and finish the repairs but I'm really curious about my reaction. I know how weird it sounds
