Venting Celebrity deaths vs me

[Lordsudbury]

I remember when Mac Miller died, (you could basically call it a suicide since that kind of behaviour obviously comes from a dark place with no concern for safety, I say this as a past hard drug user) I was really upset because he was so young and influential and I loved Best Day Ever. I always thought, why him?? Why not me?? So young and bright.

I've impacted the world in a positive way too but I'm not a Billboard best selling artist with millions of fans.

Then someone like Anthony Bourdain happens and you think again why TF not me? Who gives a shit.

Just ranting lol

It is just a matter of perspective in my opinion. From an astronomic point of view we are equally insignificant (not to spread negativity).

I feel the exact same way. Several people's works I find influential died at their own hands, even the closest person to me did. I tried to cbt over and over the last few days but no luck. Honestly I need to keep at it until I finally find a way out.

When the front man of Linkin Park died, I remember being sad but not surprised. LP is like a love letter to death, depression and heart break. My last song will definitely be a LP song. It's hard to pick which one...

I can't really bring myself to emphatize with extremely privileged people

Well I always see these documentaries about celebrities, and one thing is for sure, some of them are just like us or even worse mentally.
