Traumatising experience

    OP: I think I've been traumatized.

    Also OP: People who don't watch this stuff are delusional about real life.



    OP, you honestly sound like a really stupid person. If you think that watching gore makes you understand the world, you don't understand it at all.

    Do you think any of the world's greats go browsing liveleak to get the inside line on society? You just like gore and found one that went too far. You deserve it.

    That high IQ. I honestly thing you should apply for mensa international. It will increase your career opportunities tremendously.

    People have been killing women as children for all of human existence OP. Just the fact that it's recorded and put online doesn't make it worse. That's the world we live in so my advice is to take a spoon of concrete and harden up..

    I'm hardened up, I could watch videos like that all day without feeling a thing.

    I definitely have learned a lot about humanity by doing so, personally advise against doing so though, as I have experienced trauma from it

    No. They're simpletons because they share them.

    Because spreading awareness is a bad thing obviously. Let them continue to chop heads instead of let them be executed themselves.

    why should they be? where do you draw the line?

    There should always be some unregulated form of the internet to show the brutal truth of every aspect of society, from Wikileaks and the Panama Papers (which seem to have been swept under the rug), to ISIS execution videos, to massacres and footage from freelance reporters, to... random 'execution' videos, or whatever

    I'm happy to know they are there for me to look at, and I'm happy to know I never will.

    Right, as a ‘reality news site’ I just feel there’s some impressionable minds out there though that might wanna make headlines and anus guy or self harm girl might be the least of them

    Are you a 17-year-old? I haven't heard anyone over the age of 20 ever mention Mensa. I think you've brought it up twice in this thread.

    And I don't have to be smart to wonder about your level of intelligence. You sat and got traumatized but are now belittling others for not doing the same.

    I've seen my fair share of gore but I find I can learn just as much about humanity from reading about this awful stuff. Far more in fact because why a person smashes someone's head in with a hammer is more important than just seeing it in a long list of liveleak videos.

    True, it's like a trainwreck, you know it's bad but you can't look away. You can keep your ignorance and live in your own bubble not knowing what's happening in the world. If everyone has seen such videos then I am sure more would be done. But keeping living your delusional life.

    So, now that your all hardened up, and simultaneously traumatised - what are you going to do about it?

    I assume you're off on the next flight to Cameroon to give these rapscallions a damn good thrashing?

    Or will it be a couple more beheading videos and then back to pornhub?

    People who watch this shít are fúcking arseholes, nothing more, nothing less! You're not learning anything, or educating yourself on the big bad ways of the world, it's just voyeurism at it's most debased.

    Hardened up? You're likely too anxious to leave your house half the time - grow the fúck up and stop watching this shít.

    This obviously isn't true. There's a concept you should be aware of, called 'vicarious trauma'. Google that and learn something new.

    News reporters and the video editors handling the raw video news feeds suffer the effects and require trauma counselling at times. The effect can also be cumulative - sounds obvious I know, but the more frequently you watch, the worse it gets...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,810 ✭✭✭✭evolving_doors


    I have no sympathy at all. You went looking for a cheap thrill sensation and you got one.

    He ain't traumatised ... He's just jealous.

    Here's a gift for you, OP. https://reddit.com/r/watchpeopledie/ . Since you're all hardened up, it will all mean nothing to you.

    For the rest of us, we can go to https://www.reddit.com/r/People f u c k ingDying/ and enjoy ourselves. We may not learn as much as you, but at least we'll sleep.

    What if reading is problematic for you?

    Then carry on with life. No need to be affecting ourselves negatively for no tangible benefit.

    So you've watched the videos and therefore have low iq by your own definition.

    Is it possible to carry on while feeling somewhat detached by not knowing what others have learned from reading? You d be surprised how many struggle with reading problems

    I can leave my house and come meet you, if you wish. Anytime today or tomorrow. We'll see who's anxious.

    Traumatised because you watched the video, knowing what was on it?
    Or traumatised because you were not aware that things like this happen?

    Most people know that murder happens and that it's wrong without having to watch people being murdered.
    You seem to be trying to justify watching snuff porn (for that's what it is) by making yourself out to be some sort of crusader. Hopefully some self realisation comes your way.

    That's not such a good sign at all P.

    Many worry about Artificial Intelligence. I worry far more about Organic Idiocy.

    I'll come round your ma's gaf and we can watch ISIS burn gays in a cage, you know, make a day of it. I'll bring cans, does your ma let you drink?
    I suppose I could get you some blue wkd, that's not really drinking.

    Ah it's yourself, Mrtestosterone. You got banned before for trying to trick members into meeting so you could beat them up or kill them, and you seem to still want that.


    I find it hilarious that you think people feeling anxious around you is a good thing. And your noble "cause" for watching these videos when you're really just getting yourself off to them. You should be in an institution.

    The sooner you're back at school the sooner you'll forget all about it.



    Hopefully you'll forget Boards too.

    OP's troll attempts are pitiful. 1 star. Would not read again.

    Cheer yourself up by watching a video where only men are killed.

    You sound like a keyboard warrior...
    A narcissist who's full of insecurity and defects of character...

    There's a lot of study's on this type of persona, intriguing to say the least.....

    It happens. The world is full of savagery and violence the likes of which is beyond the dreams, yea even the ken, of the most twisted horror writers. There's a civil war going on over there, and as is the way with such matters it's a pretty long way from "civil". With any luck the UN might decide to get involved and improve things. But things like this will still happen. And watching concentrated violence on YouTube and getting all riled up over it won't help, on the contrary it'll just injure you.

    You will do the square root of f all. And if you did ever leave your house with your keyboard, I’m sure warriors like you would indeed be anxious. My theory is that you were turned down by Mensa international as you appear to have a hard on for them as well as snuff porn......

    OP do a search for 'self hypnosis' on Youtube. Try some of the ones for stress relief and anxiety.

    Let us know how you get on.
