The concept of "bad faith" is terrifying

A while back I got into Camus, and the concept of "bad faith" shook me to my core. I've been struggling to reconcile it with reality. For those of you who don't know, "bad faith" is when an individual refuses to accept reality. When they deny it and do whatever they can to go against it, even if it is harmful. An example is a cancer patient. They're told that they're going to die, but they refuse to accept it. They think that if they don't accept it, they can beat the odds and live.<br><br>I recently saw a woman on TikTok, who had a rare disease called epidermolysis bullosa. Essentially, her skin falls off due to minor trauma. She was going on and on about how she wasn't going to accept that she would die from this. She said that she refused to accept it, and she was going to keep living. She had a whole monologue about how accepting her fate is wrong. She said that she had no reason to believe that she would die, and she wasn't going to accept it. She said that it's wrong to accept your fate, and that it's wrong to give up. I was surprised, as most people I see with this disease are accepting of their fate. I don't blame them, it's a horrible disease, and there's nothing they can do. But I think it's wrong to refuse to accept it. It makes you question why someone would go through that. Is she going through all this pain for nothing? She's not going to beat the odds. She's going to die. If she doesn't accept that, she's going to live her whole life in denial. She will have nothing to hold onto at the end. Is it better to accept that you're going to die? I guess this is an old concept, but it's something I never really thought about until now. Does anyone else think that refusing to accept your fate is wrong?
