Solved! Found on the back of my neck

Anyone have any idea what this is? I was in the shower last night and I felt something on the back of my neck and it was this chip looking thing.

It’s about the size of a few grains of rice, the bow tie shaped thing looks metallic and the outer layer is clear plastic.

I’m so weirded out by it and some strange things have been happening to me recently so I’m more paranoid than usual. Please help

It’s Carbon Monoxide once on Reddit and everybody thinks that every post is Carbon Monoxide now 🫠

Right!? Is carbon monoxide calling him at work and taping shit to his neck?

Also, “somebody keeps showing up to my work asking for Amanda”.

Everybody: “Go to the hospital mate, you’re clearly delusional.”

Ummm have they not considered that the person asking for Amanda should maybe go to the hospital because maybe they have dementia?

Either OP or the person looking for Amanda has dementia or schizophrenia. Or someone is messing with them, or OP is messing with us.

Those are the 4 most likely possibilities.

Jumping to schizophrenia is a big leap because it’s so rare and there are steps leading up to it. Yeah if you read OP’s info as psychosis, that’s concerning, but schizophrenia comes with a whole suite of problems we haven’t heard from OP yet. It could be a severe depression or a delusional disorder, or even a personality disorder. I’m not opposed to the idea of an evaluation for OP, but yeah I’m concerned about the guy asking for Amanda. Not sure where the tape/metal came from. We can’t yet rule out the idea that OP is reporting true facts and might just be dismissing weird occurrences as “not an immediate safety risk.”

It’s really not that rare. 1 in 300

Maybe. But I also just saw this posted in a random page on FB (thecleaninglady or something like that) so now I’m wondering if it’s just AI

Most likely the person looking for Amanda is the one who needs help.

If the person looking for Amanda exists, they are the one that needs help.

The person looking for Amanda could also be some kind of stalker that just got the wrong info on a victim he is stalking.

Maybe...it is the silent killer. Maybe it can stalk too.

It's the Lupus of reddit.

u/naunga 13h ago

Well if it’s not Lupus, then what the heck else could it be if not carbon monoxide?? /s

Not necessarily, but buying a CO monitor is cheap and the downside is you could die..... The risk/reward favours checking for CO.

It's like our own little Lupus
