What it says on the tin, mostly. I have very intense anxiety and ocd (both diagnosed) which can often lead to my thoughts running ahead of me and the logic that I am aware of. I know I am susceptible to conspiracy theories because of this tendency. I've joked before that I would be easily indoctrinated, ect. Recently I had an episode that was very upsetting and I realize that I do need to get a handle on this fault of mine, even if it's hardwired in. I can't afford therapy atm, and I've found self-help books have really helped me so far in dealing with my issues.
This one is just specific enough that it is hard to research. There are plenty of resources that help folks deal with someone who has fallen down a 'rabbit hole', but very few on how to keep from tumbling into one yourself, even when you are aware you are in a field filled with them that you have to walk through every day, and there's a little voice in your brain telling you this rabbit hole might be onto something.
