"I guess I don't have a good emotional grasp on the senseless deaths of hundreds or thousands of innocent people."

Nobody does. What the doctor was trying to tell you was to stop RELIVING it. I suggest you start by not typing it to strangers on forum boards. Not only do you remind yourself, you encourage others to "console" you... and it remains a merry-go-round.

The world has many problems in it, ore than enough to go around. Few on the Internet sign on to read reruns of sad things. If they do they are normally victims who seek it out.

Perhaps you need a doctor that is more direct and less polite?

Sadness lasts forever in some cases. If you are unable to progress past it and constantly live it, you will never be happy. Live in love. Take whatever is offered, and then some...always give all. K
