How do you carry on despite being the aware of the worlds suffering?

They say intuitive pisces can feel the sorrow and sufferings of the universe. I found the invisible people yt channel, there is a pregnant teenager who has to sell herself,

a guy who survived cancer twice while on the street, people kicked out when they were 14 and now being homeless for 20 years, veterans, mother with children sleeping in tents and I know I cannot singlehandedly change the incentives of a government into helping them more.



I cannot breathe, it is unbearable, i cannot come to terms with this. Please give me advice and goodvibes

go get yourself hurt, it will make u stronger, then u can stop giving a fuck

I have a hard time dealing with the suffering of the world. I used to use drugs to try to deaden myself to it but it was only a temporary fix which always wore off and left me a really bad place. Now that I’ve chosen to feel it all without any buffer, I have to focus on what I can control. And that’s really only myself. I feel my best doing as much charitable things as I can, but I am only one person. That’s why I find myself more and more looking to contribute in areas where other people feel the same and are actively working to help others. There can be no light without the darkness and that’s a tough concept. There will always be suffering to remind us of the gifts in life. As long as we are working to balance the bad with good, that’s all we can really do. I feel you though, I really do.....

Because as an individual I am all that matters.

I do not fight wars that are not my own.

I do not pretend that I can "save" or "change" anybody or anything. It's a fruitless and flawed endeavor. The man in the mirror is the only person that counts.

Oh that's very simple. Because



Changing or saving the world is not my responsibility. I am my responsibility, I gotta take care of myself because noone will take care of it for me. People around the world are only good at making noise on twitter, and most of the time they're completely ignored aside from some instances where token changes are made to appease some of the snowflakes, like "ZOMG must no longer cast white people voicing non-white cartoon characters".



Yeah good stuff, the world is such a brighter place for it.

99% of people who claim to be humanitarians and go on rallies and paste links of donation sites that they themselves have not donated to, are just tragic nolifers with far too much time on their hands out to score internet points "OOOH LOOK AT ME I'M SUCH A GOOD PERSON". Plenty of DXP examples to choose from.

That is, the few that don't actually engage in pillaging and looting and wanton violence just because they can for the moment.

Pathetic.

For all the bad things in the world, there are just as many good things - you may need to look a little more in depth, or longer...don't let it drag you down. I have a whole YouTube playlist of things that make me cry...for sad reasons, also for happy reasons. Don't let something harden you if you can still see that silver lining...cause if you can still see that, then it's worth fighting for. Yeah, maybe not directly, but if you think outside the box, or even not, just sit n think for a minute before you get all up in your feels (I do this to much sometimes) and if you can even help a tiny bit...and it's important to you - then do so. How you know how.

As a Pisces with very strong hsp, I had to learn to filter and close myself off from all the emotions, vibes and energies. As much as I want to help and be there for others, it was costing me my peace. I'd become depressed. In order to keep my own sanity, I had to learn to close my brain when things became too much. What hurts me the most, children and animals in distress.

Atm, the world is haywired and we're moments away from the 3rd world war.... that alone makes me feel very depressed about humanity.

All I can say is: you cant fix things even tho you want to. Try and help locally, in meantime, close your brain for all the hurt. If you dont, it'll cost you your sanity.

internalize->rationalize->become your own moral compass->learn to switch empathy on&off ->stay on top
