Stop WW3 before it starts, I'm on the spectrum and it scares me to my bones

Stop WW3 before it starts, I'm on the spectrum and it scares me to my bones

World War 3 and nuclear war in particular are becoming highly likely, especially because of the potentially unlawful actions of certain countries (such as when Russia invaded Ukraine, and what china is going to do with Taiwan by 2027), if a nuclear war or similar event breaks out, it will lead to a living hell, so it should be stopped before it starts

I have been suffering from severe anxiety, depression, panic attacks, and have become sick, all because of in the news (especially in the apps like Apple News and several uk tabloids and news sites) highly likely going to be world war 3/nuclear war, I have seen "Threads" (1984) which at the time was produced with the input of scientists, doctors, and other experts, if war must happen, the government should distribute euthanasia kits to everyone in the country, so that nobody need suffer the horror of a post-nuclear attack world

    Hi and welcome to the community.

    I’m sorry to hear of your struggles with this. Like  , I don’t believe that a petition will change anything.

    Rather than trying to change things that are outside your control, I’d suggest focusing on trying to lessen the harmful impact of your thoughts, including by contacting your GP for support (if you’re not already receiving it, or if the support you’re already receiving isn’t enough).

    Along with the possibility of medications to help you cope, support could include therapy, for which you might also be able to self refer without needing to see your GP:

    NHS - Talking therapies

    One or more of these articles might also be helpful:

    NAS - Anxiety

    NAS - Depression

    NAS - Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
