I love me some true crime. Fortunately and unfortunately there seems to be an unlimited amount of it on YouTube. My favorite channels are EWU, Dr Insanity and Beyond Evil. What about you? Do you like true crime?

No. My wife keeps watching it around me and this is while I’m trying to manage my stress levels by not seeing horrible things that have happened in real life. It has caused some conflict.

That’s really upsetting that she doesn’t respect your boundary. Especially considering your diagnosis. I’m sorry you deal with that.

She can’t be in a room with a television without it on and she watches a lot of documentaries. That means that she always has it on in the living room. I’d go downstairs except that my daughter moved home (national housing crisis) so she has taken over what was my man cave. I’ve got nowhere left in my home for a quiet moment right now except for the backyard. Then my wife asks why I’m avoiding her. I tell her I’m avoiding her televsion viewing and she is upset I think she has bad taste in TV. She does. So do I, but I don’t make her watch it.

Hmm not fair at all. I assume youve tried talking to her about this… maybe you could try getting headphones and listening to music or an audiobook while she’s watching her shows?

Theoretically I know what not to do but I couldn’t pull it off. I’m a terrible liar.

My brain latches onto stuff too visually so i take caution on what i fill my noggin with.

Ugh yes! I love interrogation videos. I get so into the psychology of each party. JCS -Criminal Psychology on YouTube is the channel that started that whole genre. They haven’t posted in a while though:(

Yes, I enjoy true crime shows and documentaries.

I prefer the ones though where the bad guys get caught. Especially if it deals with disturbing people like serial killers.

I’m mostly fascinated by the psychological aspect of it. Like what makes some people tick?

Richard Ramirez always fascinated me because he was always honest and upfront about being a murderer and having dark beliefs. Lots of other serial killers always keep lying to the press even after they’re caught.
