Reply #49: mammals and stress

[PATRICK]

This is why heroism is not a normal state of affairs while denial, leisure and dumping stress even in a crisis is. Living in stress when you can't even identify causes and cures if you try, with an overarching establishment denial or distraction means a fog of stress and group huddling, isolation or lashing out. The situation being insane, the truth being denied leads both to isolation from others and flight from the self, hiding in the group and despising the group, dissatisfaction and overreaction in defending the situation anyway.

Fear-anger-depression: symptoms more of living inside an unrecognized inert crisis than fluoride in the water creating male impotence.

Knowledge and action, irony and dedication is a cure available here and elsewhere, thank God.
