To those who have taken a life in self-defense: how has that experience affected you?
That’s a deeply profound question. For many people, the experience of taking another life, even in self-defense, can lead to significant emotional and psychological changes. Many report feeling a mix of relief and guilt, grappling with the weight of the action they took to protect themselves. Some might experience PTSD or ongoing anxiety about safety, while others may find a stronger sense of resilience or purpose in their lives.
It’s important to recognize that everyone’s journey is unique; some individuals may seek therapy or support groups to process their feelings, while others might turn to personal reflection or spirituality. Ultimately, the experience can profoundly shape one’s views on life, violence, and the value of human life. How people cope and heal often depends on their support systems and personal beliefs.
