I've watched season 1 through 6 and there definitely were more than one episodes that just left me feeling like crap... But there's so many incredible episodes intermixed, like San Juniperno, that has made me keep coming back.

Today I watched the first episode of season 7, Common People, and... I just can't. It's done me in.

I have a question for those who have watched the remainder of the episodes. Are there any episodes that end on any sort of positive note or are they all this dreadful?

Maybe it's just not for me anymore. I get the premise behind Black Mirror, but there is something about this episode that just kind of shoved me past a point that I'm not sure it's worth it for me to keep watching.

I felt the same after the episode. We had to pause auto play and take 5 min to get back on track. The first episode of this season hits so hard because it feels so real and achievable I think. The next one is also dark but more in a this can never happen kind of way. I’ll continue watching. But I kind if love feeling awful after reading a story or watch a movie. I like being hit really hard with emotions.
