I hope it helps you! This reminds me of how I feel when my anxiety/OCD is really bad. The doom feeling is awful. It's hard to do, but I am working on mindfulness and bringing myself back into the moment. Ruminating can turn into a rabbit hole. Sometimes it helps me to think of my brain like an overly anxious best friend who means well and keeps pointing out everything as a way to protect me. I have to kind of go "thanks for your concern, but I know I didn't do anything to get arrested and so I am going to go about my day and ignore your chatter" kind of thing. We can't trust everything we think.
