Can you turn off your humanity switch?

Emotions, feelings etc.

Absolutely not. I'm a deeply feeling person who's been called too sensitive, too emotional, too intense, ect, but screw that. Those are just a few dynamics to the fabric of my being. Plus I like giving back to humanity even though I'd much rather give back to animals. Besides, when you turn everything off, you become apathetic and apathy is the most miserable state to exist in.

The world actually needs more compassion anyways.🌷✨

Honestly, I can't. But if I wish it really strongly, I could.
I just don't want to.
A life without emotions and humanity is just... too boring so I don't think I will ever want to get there xD
[b]Bear your emotions - you are strong enough. If you never tend to them and don't heal, they will eat you alive, even if you act as if they weren't there. [/b]

Well.. yeah.. but i think you have to go through alot of pain and loss to get to an understanding of that state and controlling it properly. Like i usually only try to do that when im dealing with ptsd but have to focus on something like work. Its not something you want to get used to.

Yes but it's not good to do it for long periods of time you can get stuck that way

@Iwantout how to do it?

@Number5 it's hard to describe it's just like I flip a mental switch and instantly shut down it could be something that is hereditary because I have family members like that as well

Selectively, yes, but in general, no.

Humanity is overrated, caninity is superior. Be happy to see everyone, enjoy what the day brings and settle disagreements quickly and effectively 😊.

Yes, I can. We all can!
How else can we justify our smiles and happiness when there is so much poverty, pain and suffering around us.
Not really .. but I can kinda be a cold mf'r when pushed to it
