Re:Zero - The anime that broke me (spoilers)

Sooooooo.... this is going to be dumb and me being a wimpy but... I dont think I can finish it... Ive tried on multiple attempts to finish the first season but I just cant.
My bf and me began to watch the anime 9 months or so ago, he had watched it before and he thought it would be a good way for me to get into story anime. At first I was really enjoying it, I enjoyed the characters even if the protagonist is a bit of a dumbass.
It was quite... "okay" to me at first, groundhog day if it was an anime with lots of death..... oh the death.... *Sigh*
I am not ashamed to say my favourite character of the anime is Rem, and last warning that I may spoil some things ahead if you intend to watch it.
Rem... as a character I find has a lot of development as the season went on, she started out a generic maid who looked down on Subaru the protagonist... but as the episodes went on a new side to her is introduced.. multiple. She can be caring, she can be crazy. She can be meek, she can be badass. Her flip-flopping personality reflects her damaged mental state in my mind... to me she is a very damaged character when it comes to emotion and sanity. Having lost her village and parents, feeling guilt due to enjoying her sister's horn be destroyed.... and the countless deaths of Rem throughout the season.
Rem dies a lot I have found, more so than other characters barring Subaru. Rem dies a lot and I think... its took its toll on me. Call me a simp, call me a wimp... but I dont think im cut out for this anime.
One scene has been burnt into my mind from 9 months ago and it is in episode 15. The infamous "Rem twister" Scene... watching my favourite character be mangled and then fall limp only to still be alive... broke me.....
After this I asked a friend to lay it on me. "Does it get worse" I asked him and he told me it does... "How? Tell me" I told him.... and knowing what happens next I dont think I can do it. The cast of the anime has been great... I just dont think I have the stomach or... mental state to complete it.
