When did a tragedy in life come with a recovery routine? I am talking about when tragedies happen to celebrities and socialites of course.

Lately, I can’t help but notice that when bad things happen in the life of celebrities they don’t take time to themselves or turn to family and friends only to get them through the pain. Instead they turn to Oprah and the public! It has become so routine that you can almost predict who a celebrity is going to turn to during their time of need based on the tragedy or based on who the celebrity is.

Tragedy  and The Recovery Routine

Tragedy Recovery Routine
Drug addition  Rehab & A Visit to Dr. Drew
Sex Addition, Cheating on the spouse, Caught in sex act, Producing a sex tape Sex rehab & Visit Pierce Morgan Tonight (Maybe Oprah too)
Celebrity death in the family, Celebrity has a brush with death Family of the celebrity goes on Oprah, Pierce Morgan & The View
Celebrity divorce, Celebrity separation Visit to The View & Oprah. Also an interview on E! News
Celebrity accident (car accident, skiing accident, injured on film set, etc) A visit to The View and an interview on E! News
Random celebrity scandal and negative rumors A Visit To The View, Ellen Degeneres & Pierce Morgan
Celebrity child dies or become sick or takes the wrong path A Visit to The View, Oprah and maybe Pierce Morgan

It has become expected or normal to share your pain with the world even when the tragedy or situation is considered very personal by most people. Why has painful experiences and personal strife become necessary public knowledge. This is not therapeutic or helpful for the celebrity. If a person needs to talk to someone to cope with a tragedy they should go to a professional therapist or psychologist. Although Oprah and the ladies at The View are very mothering and they APPEAR to be concerned, the fact is they are not professional therapists or psychologists, they are simply professional conversationalist! So why would anyone put their person pain and grief on display only for public speculation, opinion, ridicule and judgement. More importantly when did this become an acceptable way of life or the routine.

If you have never noticed this before or did not know this at all, now you know……………
