Rushing out of sadness

I wonder if I'm the only person who doesn't rush out of sadness.

When I'm sad, I'm genuinely sad. I don't hurry to leave, I don't feel bad about not being happy, I don't try to numb the pain, I don't bully myself with positivity or give myself a false sense of security.

Rather,

I create space to feel the sadness, face my pain and come to terms with the situation: my life has been altered,it's not an easy experience and I don't try to make it seem so.

If I ever try to not feel my sadness, I become a mess, much longer than I should have.

So I'm wondering if anybody else sits with sadness like I do.
