I'm trying to manage my anxiety about all this by reading a novel and I'm finding my mind has already shifted to the current reality so for example:
'She headed to the tube station' my mind is saying Nooooo don't go in the tube, 'She pushed her way through the crowd to the bar' my mind saying 'get out of there now' Not in a conscious way but it's quite unsettling.
Has anyone else noticed this?
