I have felt sick for 2 days after watching a certain viral video...I am really affected by it...please help me?!


Question: I have felt sick for 2 days after watching a certain viral video...I am really affected by it...please help me.?
I was sent a link to a horrible viral video (I won't say which one, because I don't want this question removed, and I don't want people to watch it). Anyway I didn't even watch the whole thing, but let's just say there is a lot of blood and glass. I am so disturbed and this feeling has never happened to me before. I had such a bad sleep last night and couldn't stop thinking about it - everything went back to it. Most people probably have no idea what I'm talking about, and the ones that do must think I'm overreacting, but I can't help this. Is it possible to suffer post traumatic stress (maybe temporary.?) from watching a video.? Am I going to be like this forever.? I can't make the images leave my mind....I can't "unsee" what I saw! I'm really not joking, I need help.Health Question & Answer

I've seen it, it's very disturbing. It's also fake. there are lots of clues in it that help you know that this person did not actually have the problem shown. I hope that helps you sleep, but I can imagine that you still might need some recovery time. Stay off that web site and others like it.Health Question & Answer

I suggest mentioning this problem to a relative or seeing a professional for guidance, i'm sorry to hear this and this is really common, please tell someone about this and i hope you get over this.Health Question & Answer

Try to think of something else when it pops into your head. Some people just can't handle **** like that. Gradually the image will fade as you didn't actually experience it. If it doesn't then you have a problem.Health Question & Answer

Time heals wounds well. Just wait.Health Question & Answer

It would help to sit with a parent, friend or counselor and discuss in more detail what you saw, and why you found it disturbing. You may be feeling some fear because of the images, and/or self-recrimination for putting yourself at risk. also, try to keep to a regular pattern of work, eating sleeping. It may help to be in your "normal" routine. If this persists another three days, talk to your doctor, but this kind of shock should fade over time.Health Question & Answer
