Ever since the 25th anniversary I’ve been unable to stop looking at footage of 9/11 or to stop reading about it. I know I’m not saying anything new or profound here but I can’t comprehend the event and that’s why I think I keep coming back to it. (1/2)

Im just heartbroken at the loss of life that day and the subsequent loss over the next few years. It makes me think of my own mortality and how afraid I am of death. I was already depressed before the anniversary but seeing so many witnesses/survivors describe their trauma or families missing their loved ones broke me even further and continues to break me (2/2)

Why do I think you are finding some sort of familiarity in experiencing these feelings.

There were firefighters who kept going up into the North Tower after the South Tower had collapsed so they could rescue survivors still trapped inside, and they died too when the North Tower eventually fell. Beautiful lost souls who were taken that day 😭

Would you care to explain what you mean?

Like the painful feelings are a source of comfort for you? I cannot explain.
