Do you always express your feelings?

@Alyosha why?

@SimplyLogicalDiscipline It was a habit I learned, probably from childhood trauma. It seemed to help me maintain a cool rationality, but now I see it was a product of sickness and contributed to keeping me sick. You deal with your emotions and maintain cool rationality anyway, without being ignorant of your own mental state.

@Alyosha brain design is complex

@SimplyLogicalDiscipline Nueral plasticity seems to admit a lot. Not all of it good.

@Alyosha for a long time I used to believe it is designed in our favour haha

@SimplyLogicalDiscipline It is probably that it is good for what it's supposed to do (behavioral malleability) but that it can be hijacked for ill purposes.
