SeaBreeze Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 Hi guys, I'm feeling really anxious over an incident that just happened now. I was playing with my dog and threw his rubber ball when it hit the curb and went backwards and hit my laptop screen. I immediately panicked as my OCD is around technology and perfectionism and wiped the screen and found no problem that I can see - no mark, no crack, no screen ghosting and no dead pixels. My brain is going into overdrive, I feel so stupid and bad. Nobody else would have made that mistake. What would you all do? I feel so guilty. The thoughts I'm having are just so bad, I am shaking. Sorry to sound stupid! It might fall apart on me at any moment, couldn't it? Do I need to get it assessed by a professional? Link to comment
SeaBreeze Posted May 23, 2023 Author Share Posted May 23, 2023 I am still shaking and keep checking my laptop display. I am finding it hard to move on. Link to comment
PolarBear Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 In all likelihood, I would not have cleaned the laptop screen. It was a ball, not uranium. What you need to do is nothing, besides getting your mind off this non-issue and onto more important stuff. By the way, you didn't make a mistake. Link to comment

Nobody else kicks a ball and let it hit their laptop? Link to comment

There is a problem with the camera, every twenty minutes or so a green flicker occurs so I am sending it off to Lenovo for assessment as I had paid for accidental protection. Worrying about if it will get there safely, will they find anything wrong or have I made it up in my head etc? Link to comment
