I was watching grey's anatomy and I saw the scene with Burke's hand surgery. I stupidly decided to research "What happens if you wake up during surgery," this led to a rabbit hole of stories about being fully aware of everything that happened during surgery. Despite the fact that I am not getting surgery anytime soon and the fact that this is a 1/1000 chance, and an even lower chance to feel the pain, I cannot stop thinking about this and it is impeding on sleep.
Does anyone know how to stop constantly thinking about this, it's like a worm that won't get out of my head. Again, I know it's not that big of a deal compared to all the stuff other people on this sub are going through, but I really want to be able to sleep at night, ya know?
