What’s your “I’ll just do it for 5 minutes” lie?

I keep telling myself “I’ll just think about it for five minutes”.

Next thing I know it’s 11pm and I’m mentally replaying every decision I’ve made since 2015 and questioning my entire life trajectory.

Apparently my brain doesn’t understand what five minutes means

What’s your version of this?
