High fit

Force Quit is exactly what Jay Shetty recommends when the spiral starts. The anxious loop — replaying the same fear, searching for certainty that never arrives, mistaking worry for productive thinking — keeps looping without producing anything new. Jay's 'then what?' exercise is a form of Force Quit: instead of letting the catastrophic thought run on repeat, you deliberately push it forward until it runs out of steam. The loop stops feeding itself.
