Venting Empathy burns me. I wish I could just become psycho for a moment.

It really burns you to be worried about too much. Goddamn.

Empathy for what?

Empathy for what?

For the suffering of other people.

For the suffering of other people.

Suffering is not a bad thing, on the contrary.

It is easy to say that when all of your needs like health, food, home are met you know...

For most is a constant cycle of exhaustion without exit.

D @Foidkiller, as with everything, there are nuances. Yes! Suffering can bring a great degree of wisdom of course, I agree. But not always, most of the time it is just because the universe wants it to happen.

This is way too random, but there was this point in my life a while ago where I realized everybody is at the center of their own world as much as I am the center of my own and that they have their own thoughts, battles, and struggles as I do. All the weight that I carry with me throughout life, many too carry their own and so much more. Idk why but in my eyes, it humanized everybody to a degree like never before, and I had this sense of newfound sympathy for people. I'd find myself randomly emotional for even the smallest of happenstance.

You're right, what really sucks about awareness is that it is irreversible...

The thing is that it is not necessary to become psycho and lose it completely.

As I agree with the psychoanalysts, the only thing you have to do is to become more conscious of your own tendencies, and thus I had to admit that my identity had solidified a lot around this emotion and thus it seemt to have gained some sort of status as an 'ultimate truth'.

Now I have gained more clarity of mind, and I am back to feeling more relaxed and being less emotional as for people's feelings.
