If you had to choose between having to feel everything or nothing at all, what would you choose and why?

Having and not having emotions can be very tricky, they take a hold of your life: the way you think, act and react. What's the pro and cons of the two if it was either the one or the other?#

I swing between the two too often.

I'd like to not feel anything when I am surrounded by people who will abuse my feelings.

@Miram that's really relatable. Is not feeling a shield? And the consequence of feeling too much? Is it all good, which one is to prefer?
Sorry for asking again, I just want to understand. 😊

@DeLorean It can be the consequence of feeling too much, then narrowing down the window of pain to protect oneself which leads to narrowing down everything else.
