      I heard an analogy ago from a grief counselor that's stuck with me Just going along with the general way we think of mental illness (including acute mental distress, "mental injury") in moral terms the way we don't with physical illness or injury

      Why do we make these determinations of how much you're "allowed" to be hurt by something in the emotional or psychological sense When we all know in the physical world it's a matter of sheer dumb luck Why is it a referendum on how worthy you are as a person

      There are people who fall out of a damn airplane and their parachute doesn't open and they smash into the ground in an open field, and they live There are people who slip and fall in the shower and instantly die It's random, it's all these unknowable factors of physics

      There is an *average* length of time it takes to recover from trauma, maybe, but not really a *normal* one The variance is extreme, and unpredictable Some people seem to recover very quickly, and are "back on their feet" in a month Some people *never* recover Either one is ok

      People in Group A aren't unfeeling bastards who never loved the person they lost And people in Group B aren't delicate snowflakes who don't deserve to be coddled You never know what kind of reaction you'll have until it's your body hitting the ground

          Does anyone else find it wildly unfair that when someone dies we are expected to immediately have emotionally processed a sense of loss strong enough to express genuine grief? https://twitter.com/Saraheboon/status/1311021746477240320 …

          I think that people either can't or won't consider the vast inner lives of others. I really think it's that simple.
