It’s so sad that that user thinks they’re a bad person for enjoying a piece of fiction. Antis have such a cult like mindset that as soon as one of them decides to read something “bad”, they begin to feel guilty over nothing. I really do hope that they’re counsellor is able to convince them that they’re not a bad person, that they’ve done nothing wrong and enjoying “dark” fiction really does not hurt anyone. Really, I just hope they don’t do anything to harm themselves. I don’t agree with their view about how enjoying these things make you a bad person or whatever, but no one deserves to feel so terrible over enjoying a story, or reading it at all :( – 🐢
I did check up on them on their blog to see if there was any resolution.
It seems that their counselor suggested that they might have Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
They haven’t posted about pro/anti stuff since then.
Hope things get better for them.
