Women

I always wondered if many women watch this shit?

I mean every dude loves combat footage because as boys we all played soldier with our nerf guns and played violent video games, being more predisposed to violence probably makes us more curious about watching people die.

Ladies, can you explain why you watch this horrible stuff? Just good ol’ morbid curiosity? Its hard for me to guess with you being the more loving, gentler half of the human race. Where did your curiosity originate?

Mods: do you know the male to female ratio for here?

Reality. Morbid curiosity. I also have a terminal illness at 19 and I’ve had it since I was 4, so it helps me come to terms with death easier. It makes it less scary… well, sometimes haha.

Hey there, erm, if you are okay explaining it a bit I would appreciate it. I am curious by nature. Hope you are well, or as well as you can be!

Of course! It’s called pulmonary hypertension. It constricts the arteries in your lungs. Mines due to heart problems I’ve had since I was 3. It’s completely incurable and progressive, so it’ll just get worse and worse until it kills me. I’m on a medication right now that’s connected a pump and a line in my chest, and the line goes right to my heart to get medication right there. Pulmonary hypertension has also caused me to go into heart failure. I almost passed away in April and my mom signed a DNR for me because we’ve talked multiple times about what I want done, and I do not want to be intubated because waking up intubated is awful. If you have any questions you can ask them, I love explaining!

I was having a pretty okay day up until I read your reply. I love that you responded and thank you for that, and I also knew what the word terminal meant, but secretly I was hoping that just maybe it's not the case and you will get to live for as long as anyone else. When I read things like these, my mind immediately goes into the 'I want to do something about it to help' mentality even if I know it's futile. I would very much like to keep in contact if that is something you'd be okay with. I'm interested in people's life story in general, having had a wild journey myself. Do personal messages exist here or would you like to prefer to speak elsewhere, if at all? I hope you'll have an amazing day!

if you wake up intubated, your doc is doing something wrong! Thank you for sharing, I love hearing other people's stories especially what draws them here.
