When I volunteered as a new mod starting last year, I saw some horrific csam posts that I can’t forget, I just hope those who reported them have recieved some mental health support.
To cope, I hike to my local park, take edibles, try to do anything to keep me distracted but it’s hard to forget. Even as I sit here freezing in my chair the ticking of my clock is a deafening reminder of the garbage I’ve seen. It doesn’t help in that I’m an empath(I receive the pain of others) either so I just think about why these things happen and try to promote systems that prevent past mistakes from reoccurring.
A couple systems I’m aiming to improve is public education and mental health support. When people know how to better protect themselves and those most trustworthy nearest to them, the higher likelihood that atrocities like these can be prevented and stopped. That’s the hope anyways. No guarantee it’ll work.

Like a super power / supernatural kind of thing, or you mean that figuratively?
With our world becoming crueler it feels more like a curse
Is it only pain you receive, not positive emotions?
It’s a mix of both but at times it can be difficult to feel positive feelings (this is most likely due to my family)
