Comment on Is it weird that I have to resort the idea of "Determinism" to be able to move on?

You don’t need determinism for that. Our brains are absolutely fallible, no need and it doesn’t help to punk yourself over that.
But just as determinism can explain bad things happening, so can nondeterminism. We know statistically haw fast radioactive matter decay. But it’s impossible to know for a single atom, it could be within minutes, or it could be in a thousand years.
Some things are impossible to predict, and some things just happen by accident. Whether the universe made it happen one way or the other, doesn’t really matter.

What matters is that you have free will, and you can choose to cope the way that suits you best.
