End of life

Post Reply New Topic

How many of you ask yourself why did the person have to die, when I'm the worthless idiot that should die? Say for instance, you are watching something on TV and it talks about a murder case. They go on and talk about the victim and say how she or he had many friends, a loving family, a great career, etc and you have none or some of those. Or it doesn't have to be TV but maybe someone you know from school, at work or in church. For instance 5 years ago a lady from my church who sang in the choir died at age 35. She was a wife, a mother, a very bright lady too with two masters degrees, she was beautiful, had a loving family and had tons of friends. Why did she have to die? Why not me?

Yes, that bothers me, too. Or you see these TV shows where the contestant says, "I'd like to give a shout out to my wonderful husband and two wonderful kids," Arrgghh!! It's like they're throwing their normalcy in your face.

Yes. all the time.

This question has no reasonable answer. And that, actually, is a good thing imo. No "supreme beeing" deciding fate. No reason. No guilt. No fate. Just the way nature is. For me, this is very reassuring. I'm part of the whole thing, even if I don't understand it.

If you read "why bad things happen to good people", you will see the idea that bad things happen at random. While it is not a nice idea, I think that the author of the book was right.

Diagnosed under the DSM5 rules with autism spectrum disorder, under DSM4 psychologist said would have been AS (299.80) but I suspect that I am somewhere between 299.80 and 299.00 (Autism) under DSM4.
