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

[(Anonymous)]

"Every life is valuable to me."

Is it really? Do you spend an equal amount of time agonizing over the suffering of human beings as you do being torn up about suffering animals? I assume you are a vegan. Are you also quite careful as to where you source your produce (locally, organically) because you don't want to exploit the welfare of the many immigrants and undocumented aliens (including children!) who toil in the fields under harsh conditions for little pay? I also assume you are careful about where your clothing, shoes, furniture, electronics, etc. come from because you cannot bear the suffering of workers in sweatshops. Surely you also give of both your time and money to worthy causes, such as volunteering at your local soup kitchen or homeless shelter, since it's hardly fair that the lives of the less fortunate are worse than yours. Equally, you're sure to only vote for politicians who are against war and embargoes, who support social programs, and you cannot watch the news because stories of human suffering occur daily all over the world, in every single country.

Because these are the things you'd do if every life is valuable to you.

"I just don't understand how anyone couldn't feel the same."

Because people rarely feel exactly the same about anything, anon. Death doesn't make me ecstatic, but I also know it's a part of life. You might as well get "sick and upset" over rainy days or long lines at the BMV. There's a limit to how much this affects other people because if you don't put limits on how upset you get over sad, everyday things, then yes, your sanity will almost certainly suffer.

Bottom line is, you need help for your anxiety. It's not normal. Not because it's wrong to feel upset over death or dying, but because you get so upset it interferes with your ability to function. That's the not-normal part. But here's the thing: you're unlikely to seek treatment or make progress if you persist on painting yourself as the the normal outlook and everyone else as abnormal because death doesn't give them an emotional breakdown. Anxiety has a way of fucking up your perspective of what's rational and normal. I know this from firsthand experience. That's why you need help, and I hope you find it.
