It’s frustrating when people can’t tell the difference between justification and understanding…
Is it right, justifiable, excusable? No.
But I can understand being in such a place mentally where you don’t think or care about others pain, you’re simply enveloped in your own struggle.
People make really really poor decisions when backed far enough into a corner. If they can’t see an exit, they’ll make their own. That’s often far messier than it had to be.
