Re: So I'm one of "those" people

This is awkward, but I would've thought your question on MetaFilter would've yielded plenty of sympathy already: http://ask.metafilter.com/270809/hurting-from-co-workers-joke

Look, you seem like a very well intentioned person, but fishing for sympathy on the internet is usually a bad idea. It's one thing to feel bad about the struggles of a dying animal, but if it's making you feel like a terrible, worthless person and (in your own words) "unable to cope", you need the help of a therapist. It's impacting your life negatively. A therapist might help you gain a better perspective on this (particularly because you're very black-and-white on this issue and that's just not realistic) and talk through this issue so it doesn't affect you quite so strongly.

yeah it just occurred to me you're probably trying to jerk me around by implying that was me because anyone who gets upset over a similar subject must be the same, right?

nayrt

tbh, I assumed it was you too, I just wasn't going to say anything about it. That person was at least upset over seeing an actual dying mouse instead of getting upset over TV commercials. You're making a lot of "omg this means I'm crazy right?" comments, but deep down, you don't really mean it. Your defensiveness over your extreme reaction to the idea that every living thing eventually dies and your demonisation of anyone who doesn't react the exact same way as you do suggests that actually, you think you're the moral, sensitive one and everyone else is an unfeeling bastard who is too soulless to see what's really true.

That's one method to cope with the situation, but it's not a good one. Especially because it isn't working, you're getting way more upset over this than is warranted. The giveaway is that this is actually damaging your quality of life. That means that something's not right, and you need to talk to your doctor and perhaps consider therapy.
