I find that imagining stuff like that helps me. If I am ever in a situation similar to what I imagined I can always “rely on protocol” and it works out.
It’s usually pretty simple stuff like what if it gets quiet during a conversation, or exiting one when i don’t want to engage and stuff like that. It’s also sometimes going over what I’d do in a car accident, or if someone suddenly collapsed on the street in front of me.

mine never really happened in real life. the rumination was pointless 9/10 times.
Oh mine were like “how do I explain my way out if this person I just walked past starts picking a fight with me”.
