Nope, indescribable of the “bazilions of small and big things done towards it all the time with no pattern or connection other than they goal they’re supposed to help accomplish” variety.
If the memetic hazard you’re referring to is the same one as mine, I recommend benzodiazepines in the short term and vipassana meditation in the long term. And just thinking about it, though clearly you’re already doing that.
I think to a large extent, the percieved threat of the thing is due to a generally neurotic perspective, common to many people here, which can twist abstract thinking into knots when given a sufficiently long and nonintuitive chain of reasoning. The trauma illuminates a serious problem with the mind rather than a serious threat from the idea.
It’s still good to mention it, helps reaffirm your commitment. It would also be interesting to hear anecdotes about your efforts (successes and failures etc.)
Definitely. Are you taking describable approaches?

Sounds like it almost certainly is not the same one.
