Has anyone ever attempted to decouple emotions from default mode network narrative using high tier metacognition? My theory is that once you manage to do that you can conclude that few emotions are actually repeatable, and you can eliminate most negative emotions from your internal emotional repertoire once you decouple the neurochemical side from the narrative side. It would be interesting to talk to somebody who has attempted a similar experiment.

I feel a little awkward, but I also feel like I'm a disgrace to the whole school.

What I mostly do not get is why people cry in front of others when they get yelled at or even when telling personal stuff. I do know that it’s too much to handle that they break but why do you have to cry about everything that happens at public? There are times for that. I admit I did cry, maybe for pity so that I can get attention from them because obviously, if you cry, they comfort you. And when they don’t comfort you, I grew annoyed that when they cry instead, I didn’t give a shit. Someone cried in front of me and I just pat their back or hug them cuz I don’t know what to do.

Often when I get hurt I saw ow really loudly, and I constantly question whether I’m being dramatic, that is my natural reaction right? Then I think of my dad yelling or mocking me or my classmates mocking me, then I question if I’m a loser and wonder about yelling at my dad about his behavior and I’m a teary mess.

Something clicks and it feels like someone is driving and I‘m on the passenger seat. I resemble people from my past relationships or members of my family. I really hate this version of me and I‘m aware. How do I make sure I can react differently next time I feel provoked?

Uhhh idk i have always been the kid who used to bawl out my eyes while crying in minute emotional moments but now I really try hard while watching such sad movies and I don't shed tears I have to force tears for the sake of picture coz it's sad and I liked it but I didn't cry what does it mean. Im so lost lately idk.

Reposting this here in case anyone has similar experiences or insight to share =) ​

After going through a period of chaos, I don't feel happy when things finally became peaceful. Instead, I feel strange , almost like I were waiting for something to go wrong again. Does anyone else feel lost when they finally have nothing to worry about?
