Very true. It's definitely not just you that goes through this. I tend to obsess over my health more than anything, but I can definitely relate to obsessing over things like this, as well. I'm sorry that you're having such a hard time.

Don't feel bad. I wouldn't say that I obsess but I do worry a lot about the same things. Furthermore, I have an interest in learning about morbid subjects. Not because I myself want to engage in aberrant behaviors but I want to know about all the sick morbid things that are out there. You probably don't think of the terrible things that I have lately been looking up information on.

Yeah,ive been getting like this recently too.I keep thinking about how all rapists and murderers and pedos should just all be killed,their nothing but sickos that plague th world only harming and doing no good.then i ralise i sound like a nazi,but also remember that these people hav to be punished and an awful lot arent.
Then i think about suicide and how it could be an option for me when the world of univrsity and mployment ovrbear me.
Then ive recently had thoughts about how i might like working as a mortician or undertaker,cos at least the dead wont demand speech from me!
I think its gottn a bit out of hand for my brain

I used to do that a lot until it just wore me down. Now I go to Fox News for my negativity. Ha. But seriously, I would watch endless movies about people trapped, abused or dealing with addictions. I'd seek out stories in the news that dealt with animal cruelty or sex trafficking. I think it's because (for whatever reason) those things - animal abuse, domestic violence, rape, etc - wounds our empathy deeply. And we try to find relief in its exposure, the attention it gets, so that the problem gets addressed. Or maybe we see something in these issues that touches us in a way we've yet to understand, so we seek them out trying to connect the dots as to why it means something to us.
If you don't mind me asking, have you experienced any of the things you obsess over? Or someone close to you?

I find if we look for the worst in everything it makes our own problems not seem as bad as they are. Obsessing over negative things constantly though will only make you more depressed in the long run, I'm always receiving updates of animals being mistreated and it frustrates me that no matter what I do it will keep happening out there somewhere.

I'm obsess with death, I cannot stop thinking about the end of the world ( nothing to do with december 2012) because of the way we polute this planet, because of the 1% who controls a lot of what goes on on this planet, but they only care about getting richer.
I always think on when am I gonna die, how will it be like
Everyday I can't stop thinking about death

Nah, sad is like having a box of ice cream cones and no ice cream or draining your pasta and then finding out you don't have any tomato sauce.
Thinking the worst is understandable and it's ok, also remember that thinking negative is easy, you just walk around going "bah!' to everything.
Part of keeping a healthy mindset is working on it and trying to find parts that are happy. That doesn't mean you don't get to honestly get in touch with your feelings, if you feel bad you feel bad. What it means is that you work on being not so quick to dismiss everything as awful or dangerous.

im somewhat obsessed with negativity. i always find myself reading about horrid, disturbing crimes, addictions, death, creepy facts.
but its not a fear really. im not afraid of what i read about, its more of a dark fascination and morbid curiosity
