That would be funny. I’ve been anesthetized a LOT of times (my body’s a fucking shitshow, ask if you want) and they do have you do counting.
My favorite incident is that the anesthetist had me counting down. I started hitting negative numbers and the look on the anesthetist’s face was a combination of shock and horror. I only hit -2 or -3, but still.
I talk at length about my stint in the hospital and the impacts of someone who has diagnosed severe depression.

Outside of the first two of those triggers, I mostly only make brief mentions of the rest. For those of you that might want to avoid that, there is a stop sign symbol that appears on the right side of the video a bit before each of those parts – simply mute the video and wait until the stop sign goes away, then unmute. Or, if you wish, do not watch the video until you’re in a better place – that’s the whole point.
