[Ryuji doesn't have the answer to any of that, actually. Even if he had some special powers, even if he had been inside the minds and hearts of people and changed them from the inside, if "normal" encompasses the left side of the diagram, and "not normal" on the right, the concentric circles of the venn diagram leading to "seen a dead body" didn't really seem to fit when overlapped like that.

But he does know how to cope. He's done it... well, his entire life, for the most part. The advice he has isn't healthy, and he knows it, but it's worth being said anyway.]

You move through it. Compartmentalize what you've seen, accept it to be part of you, and then... kinda quarantine it.

It just is.
