Severe hangxiety right now. I lashed out at a stranger last night and I can't stop overthinking. How do I fix my brain?

Hey everyone. I'm dealing with a terrible hangover today, and the anxiety is absolutely crushing me. I am overthinking every tiny detail and my brain won't shut off.
Last night I was at a bar, trying to greet some new people, and they totally ignored me and wouldn't even shake my hand. I felt really rejected and let that anger build up. When I got back to my place, there was a rickshaw puller sleeping near my home with a lady (maybe his wife, I'm not sure). Because I was carrying that anger from the bar, I took it out on them and told them to get the f*** out of there.
Now, in the cold light of day, the guilt is eating me alive. I feel terrible for doing that to people who were just trying to sleep. I am not going to see them again, so I can't apologize, and right now I just desperately need some peace of mind.
I have two questions for anyone who has been through this:
1. How do you fix your brain and stop the overthinking loop in the middle of severe hangxiety?
2. My anxiety is convincing me that those people are still thinking about me and want revenge. Is this just the hangxiety talking?
Any advice on how to ride this out would be really appreciated.

Circuit Overseer said we shouldn’t post vacation photos online. Thoughts?

Last week our Circuit Overseer gave a talk that included an illustration that really made me think.
He showed a photo of a young sister on vacation. In the picture she was posing with nice food, a car, and enjoying her trip. He said there was nothing wrong with taking such photos or enjoying a vacation.
However, he then said that she should not post those photos online because some members of the congregation might not be able to afford such trips and could become stumbled by seeing them.
I understand the principle of being considerate of others, but this struck me as odd. At what point does normal enjoyment of life become something that needs to be hidden? If someone works hard, saves money, and takes a vacation, is it really their responsibility to avoid sharing those experiences because someone else might feel bad?
I’m curious how others view this. Is this a reasonable application of the “do not stumble others” principle, or does it place too much responsibility on individuals to manage other people’s feelings?

Sugar Season 1, Episode 7 - I am absolutely pissed about that twist. Am I the only one?

I just finished episode 7 and I am legitimately angry. I was completely hooked on this show. The slick Los Angeles setting, the hardboiled detective tropes, the old Hollywood movie references, and Colin Farrell just completely owning that classic noir vibe. It was arguably one of the best detective shows I’ve seen in a while.**

And then... aliens? Seriously?!

It feels like the ultimate bait-and-switch. I spent six hours investing in a grounded, gritty mystery about a missing girl and a detective with a traumatic past, only for the writers to abruptly change the entire genre right at the finish line. It doesn't feel clever; it just feels like they pulled the rug out from under us for the sake of shock value.

I know there were a few weird clues sprinkled in (the hyper-metabolism, catching the fly), but I just brushed those off as quirky character traits, not a setup for an extraterrestrial sci-fi twist.

Did anyone actually like this twist, or did you feel as blindsided and betrayed as I do? I'm honestly debating if I even want to finish the season now. Tell me I'm not crazy for hating this.

Hey everyone,
I’ve been drinking regularly for a while and now I’m trying to take my liver health seriously and cut down/quit. I’m looking for a good liver support supplement available in India (not just marketing hype).
I’ve seen options like milk thistle, NAC, Ayurvedic blends, etc., but I’m confused about what actually works.
If you’ve personally used something that helped (improved reports, digestion, energy, etc.), please share:
Which supplement did you take?
How long did it take to see results?
Any side effects?
Also, if something didn’t work or felt like a scam, please mention that too.
Not looking for quick “detox” fixes, just something that genuinely supports recovery along with lifestyle changes.
Thanks 🙏

Hi everyone, I really need some advice regarding my dog. He has been suffering from severe itching for many months now. We have taken treatment and given him oral medicines, and while he is on the medicine the itching reduces or stops for some time. But as soon as we stop the medicine, the itching comes back again.

Now the skin has become irritated, patchy, and there are bald/scabby areas near his lower back and tail area. He scratches constantly and it is clearly bothering him a lot.

He is also not as active as before. Earlier he used to be energetic, but now because of the constant itching and discomfort, he seems dull and less playful.

The problem is that he is very aggressive when anyone tries to apply ointment or touch the affected area, so topical treatment is almost impossible.

I’m worried because this has been going on for months. Has anyone dealt with something similar? Could this be allergies, mites, fleas, fungal infection, or something else? What can I do if he refuses ointment?

Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

28M. Lost. I don’t know what to do in life. I don’t find interest in anything. Bought courses online but cannot focus on them. I have a BTech degree in Software Engineering. Graduated in 2021. Due to Covid, I was not able to do internships because the university was closed. After that, I took admission in a Master’s in Computer Science, but I dropped out as my scholarship was about to end and I still hadn’t written my thesis paper. Plus, the management team of the university was not good at all, so they didn’t inform us about anything in advance. I left the university and came back to my country in 2024.

After coming back, I took a course in Data Science at an institute, and that institute also provided an internship. I did that for 6 months with no pay. After that, I started applying for jobs but got rejected all the time, even though I showed my projects. I know that the job market is cooked right now. Without referrals, you can’t get any job. Getting a job is like winning the lottery these days.

I saw that the market is transitioning towards AI/ML Engineer roles, so I took a new course last month to upskill myself. Truthfully, I have lost interest in it. I don’t feel like attending the classes and have lost interest in Data Science. In short, I have lost interest in the whole IT sector. I now think I was doing all this for money, with no real interest in it. Just for survival.

People say to find your own path where you love what you do and get paid for it. But till now, I have not found my path. I am so cooked and lost right now. Every day I wake up with anxiety about what I will do in my life. Everybody is settled, and I am left behind. Living with my parents, unemployed at 28 years of age, asking them for pocket money is the worst feeling ever.

I hate myself right now. I don’t know what to do. I am getting depressed, overthinking, anxious, and I don’t find interest in doing anything entertaining as well, like playing games or watching movies. I don’t know what to do and how to do it.
