MewSkitty Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Is some of you know, but not all of you, I am very sensative about a lot of things, death being on of them. Well, recently I found the Chicken Soup For The Sould books in my school library (The don't have anything to search for books, you just have to look for them with hand and eye) and I've taken up to reading the Death & Dying section of the books. With almost every story I read I almost cry. Reading those stories send so much emotion through me I can hardly handle it. Why, when it hurts me to read about this stuff, I go and read it willingly?

TheRedQueen Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Perhaps you are obsessed with death. Link to comment

Beec Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 It makes you feel. That is what makes us human, we feel, we think, we are more than animals that eat, crap and reproduce. And perhaps, it provides something that lets you get emotions out, when you otherwise keep them in. Link to comment
doyathink Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Ah, ms...sometimes it just feels good to have a good cry. Maybe your feeling low and need something to connect with. I love the 'Chicken Soup' series of books.... How are your puppies? Post some pic's of them. Link to comment
HellFrost666 Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Maybe you are looking for some relief from your own emotions... Or you are curious, maybe both. Link to comment
Haven Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Maybe you don't like your current prevailing emotional state (like if you've been depressed, unhappy, etc). You know that reading those sections will cause you to cry, so you seek out those sections because you'd rather feel anything other than what you're currently feeling (in this case, crying for others rather than feeling depressed about yourself). Of course, if you're a happy person generally, then I'm probably wrong. Link to comment
MewSkitty Posted January 12, 2007 Author Share Posted January 12, 2007 I'm happy with my normal emotional state of emptyness. I have a condition called schizo effective which robs me of most emotional feelings. This is why I never get angry. It is rare for me to feel emotion of most kinds. Link to comment
