Yeah, because it’s bloody depressing.

You get what your mind focuses on and if people actively look for depressing topics it’s no wonder they’re all doom and gloom.

That’s why people don’t want to hear it - because it affects your psychology.

I will actively run from people who lead negative lives, that complain about things but never lift a finger to make anything better. I refuse to be sucked into their pits of despair because I know there is good in the world, and I want to be part of that, focus my mind and attention and energy on leaving things slightly better than when I found it.

I will try to help ppl where I can but the truth is a lot of people are lazy and don’t want to change. So I leave them with my thoughts and know that I have done my piece.

I’m not saying this is directly attributable to your experience, simply relaying the way I feel to give you insight into perhaps a different mindset and way of seeing things.
