Does it make you feel better, or do you see through it?
No, it's not real. But the brain evolved to deal with predictions, with patterns. If you spend enough time without the patterns recurring, without the brain affirming that this is the appropriate response to ongoing stimuli I would have thought it unfucks itself. Is it not like that?
Good goal. I want to have not fucked it up in the first place. But I want to not fuck up again. I want to know I'll take no one down with me if I do.
