Hi,
I wanted to start a jewellery business with jewellery made from metals but I am not able to as I obsessed over harm coming to people because of me- as I read some published verified articles that if you use your mobile while wearing metal jewellery, it can increase the amount of radio waves your brain absorbs by upto 30% and this can cause cancer etc, not sure what to do. Is it right to not start this business because of harm coming to people? the type I want to sell there aren't any non metal alternatives. What would you do?
I am on sertraline and it does seem to help other areas. I have tried therapy before which didn't really help much.
Thanks

If this is worrying you I absolutely wouldn’t start a business. There are so many other stressful and anxiety inducing things that come with starting a business that you perhaps haven’t event thought of, and it’s not for the faint hearted.

how would you feel to get a negative review, or a chargeback on a payment, or having to market your business and perhaps face criticism about it?

Thank you, that wouldn't bother me, I was just wondering if I'm being rational in thinking this way, would you think this way about harm coming to people because of the jewellery?
