I find pictures of dead people calming, like i feel relaxed and weird at the same time when i see it... It's gruesome but it makes me realize how fragile we are..
If you are attached to dead people then probably, if its something that helps your mental health and you are becoming healthier out of it then no

Some sects of orthodox Theravada buddhism practice meditation near decomposing bodies in order to keep in mind the impermanence of life and the impurities of the body.

Eww. Decomposition is disgusting

i don't feel anything in particular to dead people or the thought of them. .. I just find the corpse calming to look at.. Like what I'm saying is the fresh appearance, not when it's already decomposing.

That's the point, though. Under the veil of Māyā we are unable to see the things as for what they truly are.

It's really understandable finding them calming as after all those who no longer exist are now at peace and cannot suffer anymore, I very much envy those who are permanently free from this existence.
