Hello
Just wondering how many of us folks here are not watching the trial due to emotional reasons? I starteed watching it/taping and decided tonight that I will watch it no more because I can't take the emotional toll it takes on me.
Is anyone else the same and only come here for updates?

Re: Have you not been able or stopped watching the trail on t.v due to finding it too uosetting?

Probably dumb reason, but I don't watch it anymore cuz I find it very boring. Waste of time. I will know all the news anyway. That's not cause I don't care about MJ. I care about him. Yesterday I watched the trial though. It was boring for me... Lol
 
Well, I took up all my courage and spend time on the NEWS forum and watched the 'testimony' of Mr. Ortega :clapping:esterday but tonite...NAH, NO stream for me... I'm sowwy, like I said in a previous post I feel like a ZOMBIE right now... I'm typing on 'automatic' :scratch:
 
I do, I want to know. So I listen. Yesterday took a huge toll, but it also depends on the kind of testimony. Today was easier, since nobody pulled any real shock factor (yet!) to make a point.

To me it feels that I spent 2 years in extraordinary emotions already, to me it feels as if these are the final markings of his physical life, things that happened to him. I have to do it.

Things will be said about Michael and I want follow so that I am not soaking up the media's interpretation (and spin), but think about it from the standpoint of having followed.
And it feels like something done out of love.

Other people just can't handle it and I totally understand that.

Boring............well I agree since most of the time is wasted on silly formalities and deliberations!

I have to agree that it is a waste of time since the worst the doctor can get is 4 years (highly unlikely), but more importantly, Michael's name will be dragged through the mud once again!!!.........

......and the media will love every minute of it :(
 
I would like to have been able to watch it, but I'm at work and it's not possible to watch it.
 
Yes, I've been watching. It's very upsetting, however, I think it is important to observe what is going on, how the defence is planning on twisting things, how the prosecution rebuts their claims, etc. I find it very interesting, though.

I've had to step out to go to class and stuff (although I do admit to skipping one or two due to my lack of composure). But, overall, I've been watching.
 
I haven't been able to watch it at all. I try to several times or so. But I really just can not handle. The mere thought of seeing or hearing any pictures or recordings related to what had happen. Is really way too much for me to handle. I had made myself so sick and upset these past 2 days. I do feel a little bit better. Since I did took a nap earlier. But I know that is really not going to last. Especially since I felt like an absolute zombie all day today and yesterday. And for these past 2 days I felt so deeply sad and depressed over this whole case and stuff. I am starting to cry over Michael again. This is the one time I so badly wish I had my Michael to turn to for comfort and to make me feel better. And I don't even have that now.:sad: :boohoo: Since watching him is something I can no longer handle doing. And I only listen to him if I only really crave to hear his voice. Sadly that is not very often now.:sad: :boohoo:
 
AH... :better: to all of you...
Somehow 'feel' glad I'm NOT the only Zombie walking this earth now...
This is a good way to start the day... Its 9 AM here so...

The only thing I follow and read are the Twitter messages on FB... Thanks to all the STAFF for doing such a 'incredible' tough job :clap:
 
I've been watching it. I want to know what's being said. There is a lot of information to take in. Because of the time diffrence I've had to record the last 3-4 hours and watch it in the morning and come here for updates/more info if I've missed anything. It's started to take it's toll today and it's only Day 3! But I'll be watching until the end no matter now I feel.
 
I've been working, so I haven't been able to watch any of it live...I've been following here closely for updates, but when I get home from work, I catch up on YouTube streams and what not, because I'd rather see it than just read about it....

I find it very interesting, and I want to know in detail what's going on...

I understand those who can't though...:(
 
I have watched every single day, and will keep on doing it until the end. I'm part of those who need to know. I totally understand those who find it too much to bear. Re living Michael's last hours is extremely hard. I'm blessed with a merciful brain which has disconnected me from reality. It has decided it was just another US show about lawyers, which is fine by me. Dunno how long it will last.
But I could not not watch.
 
I'm watching when I can and I do get upset when I can't. It's hard to explain why but there is a part of me that feels I need to see this through for Michael. I am only a little younger than Michael and he has been such a large part of my life for so may decades that I feel I owe it to him. Personally I just have to not matter how painful it is.

I completely understand those that can't, and I don't believe it makes you any less of a fan, the above is simply how I feel and is not any form of judgement on others. I hope you guys understand that.
 
I'm fascinated by this trial. I feel like I can't miss a minute of it. Which is why it kills me that I have to go to work. I listen to what I can at work by playing the live stream from my phone (I glance every so often but I can't really watch since I'm working or I'll get in trouble). I bring in my netbook every day and watch the live stream on my lunch hour. I also get the ABC news tweets regarding the trial sent to my phone. I read the updates on MJJC. On weekends I watch what I missed of the trial since I record it on my DVR. I took a day off from work last week to completely focus on the trial with no distractions. They often lose me with all the charts and graphs and science/math stuff which is not my thing (especially White's testimony) but I try to understand as much as I can. The smart fans here help with that. To me this trial is extremely important and has been a long time coming. It has been very emotional and difficult to watch at times but I want to be there every step of the way as much as I can so I can watch Michael get justice. As verdict watch begins I will be terribly nervous.
 
I don't want it to end. It's a sick feeling. I want it to end, but I don't... does that make sense? I feel like it's the last really big thing, unfortunately, and that it's brought us together in a very special way we will never feel again.
 
No. It's just too painful. I find it hard to be part of any Michael-related places online, because most of the talk is about the trial. Which is perfectly natural, and I can see that it's good and healthy to watch to see if justice is served, but I just can't. :no: These past months, this past year really, I feel like I've been in limbo.
