What is the scariest video you've watched? As an introvert, for me, it was a 63-year-old man talking about his childhood regret, which was not making the first move on a girl who was interested in him (www.youtube.com)

My curiosity got the better of me and I watched a video of a drug cartel beheading three people. Two with a chainsaw, one with a knife. It was horrific and not quick.

If you're ever tempted to watch something like that, do not do it. It's not worth it. It's been years and I still have random intrusive thoughts about it and it makes me physically ill.

Sounds closer to ptsd than intrusive thoughts tbh

Originally ptsd was diagnosed to military AND first responders, first responders because they saw some shit.
