I used to be a True Crime fan. I was raised on True Detective Magazine, but I can't do it anymore. I totally get the idea of learning how those sick fekks operate and the, for lack of a better word, fascination with how a person can get so twisted. I don't think the majority of the documentaries are bad in any way, they are lessons in humanity and the lack of it. I just lost my nerve.
I had to stop, because they literally make me sick anymore. I was reading a book about Dahmer a few years back, and how the one boy got away, and the cops brought him back. I had a panic attack right then. I felt like I was suffocating, I was shaking all over and then threw up. I cried for hours.
It's rare that I even watch made up crime dramas anymore. No stomach for it. I use to love all the Law and Order shows etc. Can hardly watch them these days.
I just wonder how it is I became so sensitive to that, but still can devour a Stephen King book, get good and scared but not freak out? I hope I never have to stop reading his books, that would be awful.
