How suggestible are you?

[Trouser_Trout]

After reflecting on how the most bullshitful things i recently talked about all were suggested to me by people i trusted and while i was under stress, though they weren't trying to brainwash me and i wasn't trying to be in a trance, i recognized that stress makes us suggestible from an extreme and unfortunate example.

But the same mechanism still happens among people who have chronic low grade stress (which is >99% of everyone living in the modern world) the more stressed we are the more suggestible we are, no matter how hard we try not to copy others.

So, have you found yourself fighting an uphill battle of trying to stop copying someone? And do you feel emotional pain often (i believe grieving is the only way to purge chronic low grade stress, but we must grieve the very oldest thing we ever repressed)?

I am suggestible and i do not voluntarily feel heartache

I am suggestible despite voluntary heartache

I am not suggestible, even though I proved that i am by jumping on the hating anons bandwagon

I am not suggestible because i use heart and grief to strip away all suggestions from their emotional power before they enter my subconscious

Anyone who knows about Donald Trump's existence has chronic stresss whether they notice it or not. The purpose of clownish nonsense he purposely does is to keep humanity in chronic low grade stress, thus suggestible.

I think you may be off on the idea that 99% of the earth's population has been diagnosed with low grade stress when there are so many countries where basic healthcare doesn't exist, much less mental health care. I would like to see where the study is posted that proves this.

I must be the lucky 1% of the world's population that is not afflicted by this because I have a pretty stress free life. Sure, everyone gets stressed from time to time but that is human nature not a condition.

Where did you get this 99% bollocks from?

I have never been a joiner or a follower. Stress has nothing to do with it. I'm skeptical of bullshit all the time. And I'm very confrontational. I have no problem calling out anyone on their bullshit.

If anything, I may be susceptible to bullshit concerning low level crap that is unimportant to me only because I'm not gonna waste much time thinking about it. The "yeah, sure, whatever" stuff.

hmm

"(i believe grieving is the only way to purge chronic low grade stress, but we must grieve the very oldest thing we ever repressed)?"

I literally have no idea what you're talking about.
