• Take my mind off it: I can't just do that by thinking "I SHALL NOT THINK ABOUT THIS THING" but it's more something like taking a shower, doing exercise or the such. As long as I don't think about myself doing this thing to forget this other thing, that usually works (not sure that sentence was even English, but hey)
• Tell someone about it: This is actually oddly effective for me. I usually only do it when it starts to get real bad and I feel like I definitely can't deal with it, but the sarcastic "here we go again" sighs and "STOP WORRYING FFS" screams usually make me realise it's just me being dumb. That or sympathy usually kinda sober me up and make me want to stop making so much of a damn fuss so people can save their sympathy for when I actually deserve it.
• Just stick it: Sometimes, either when I'm not in company I'd share my problems with or have no way of getting a distraction or any way of trying to distract myself without CONSTANT WORRYING ABOUT O EM GEE LIFE WUT IS THIS, I just let it go. Mine comes from something I know isn't realistically going to happen at all, so I just basically say to my body "Go ahead. Try me. I know you ain't up to it". It'll usually then get to a point where I can barely keep it in without just running off somewhere, stay there for a bit, then just start to taper away. I just see it as it giving up, and going back to biding its time and waiting for another time where it can try again.

As Jeremy passes around the back of the building, there is a pile of decaying body parts around some glass. Off in the distance, a good 100 yards away, a body can be seen hanging from a tree as well. What the fuck is going on.
