Thank you for the genuinely good advice, but I think it’s missing the point.

I’m not referring to depression or missing fiber in my diet; I’m referring to a specific meta-awareness of one’s emotional state. I tried to discuss a phenomenological discussion, not a physiological condition.

Have you experienced something like this?

Thank you for sharing this beautiful moment.

Thank you for this.

Well, we care. That’s why I asked. It’s just that some people are certain about they position on this and refuse to back it up.

And of course it’s fun, I’ll happily suspend belief for 90 minutes to allow me to be creeped out by a good ghost movie, but that ends when the credits start rolling.
